Louisville Neighborhoods

Whether you call it the Louisville Metropolitan Area, the Greater Louisville Area, or even Kentuckiana.  "Louisville" is comprised of more than Louisville-Jefferson County proper, otherwise known as "Louisville Metro" (since the 2003 city-county merger).  Communities and cities alongside the official city limits, including parts of Southern Indiana, are also considered Louisville neighborhoods.
