Neighborhood

Clifton Heights is a historic neighborhood about three miles east of Downtown Louisville. The neighborhood received its name because it is located on a ridge about 100 feet above the Ohio River and overlooks the adjacent community of Clifton. Today, Clifton Heights gives renters a variety of housing options to choose from including older shotgun houses and bungalows, luxury apartments, and charming condos. Since the Ohio River is nearby, you’ll find locals flocking to waterfront parks like Louisville Champions Park and Waterfront Botanical Gardens. Clifton Heights is also known for its thriving arts scene and is home to several art galleries, studios, and the Mellwood Art Center. Paired with a close-knit community and good schools, Clifton Heights is family-friendly, but it’s a great choice for any renter looking for a quiet locale that is still near downtown.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
