I am a occasional lurker on this board. My husband might have a job posibility in Louisville. Was wondering if anyone has any info about that area? I do not have clue about that area and was hoping for any input. I'm originally from Minnesota.
Thanks

I've never been there myself, but I found some links you might check out:

HTH!!!!
I used to live in Lexington, which is a little over an hour from Louisville. Louisville has some great aspects: a good arts scene, lots of concert opportunities, etc. It's close to both Lexington and Cincinnati, and about two hours from Indianapolis, so you have some major cities within easy driving distance. The Kentucky Derby is a HUGE event, with parades and fireworks. They have a minor leage baseball team that used to be named the River Bats, but now I think they're just the Bats. There are some fabulous restaurants and shopping opportunities too. That being said, there are some areas of Louisville that I would not want to live, just like any town. You'll want to do your research on where would be a good place to live. Another thing to keep in mind is that I think Louisville can be a dirty place. There's factories and such, and it can look kind of gray there. However, I've never heard of any health concerns because of that. It's definitely not the prettiest city I've ever seen, but it's better than some.

Thanks so much for the response. He will more than likely be offered a job there or dallas and he is leaning toward the dallas job. So now I am off to learn more about dallas.....
at least I learn about the cities he tells me when they talk about them...ha, ha.
Thanks
