Louisville is a great place to live.There's are strong family ties, good eating, and it wont take long before you see someone you know wherever you go.And compared to the east coast, the nicest too. Once I slid in the snow and got stuck in a ditch, so many people (in trucks) stopped to offer help before AAA arrived,that I literally ducked down in my seat so they would think the car was abandoned and keep going.Talk about a warm and comfy feeling.

There are many storms during the Spring, and they bring tornadoes from March until July. Some communities have been completely devastated last March with category 5 tornadoes only several miles away from Louisville.
