Feel the energy and community pride in the revitalized Crescent Hill neighborhood, about four miles east of downtown Louisville. Named one of the South's best comeback neighborhoods by Southern Living magazine, the Frankfort Avenue business corridor presents a highly walkable area full of locally-owned gems. Sample the artisan breads at Blue Dog Bakery and Cafe, or stick around to enjoy brunch with locals. Grab allergy-free desserts at Annie May's Sweet Cafe as you wander other shops.

The historic neighborhood maintains its roots in the form of well-preserved cottages. A number of apartments for rent offer up diverse housing options that keep you close to the action. Residents take an active role in keeping the community alive and sustainable. Past efforts by residents include refreshing Kennedy Park and saving the neighborhood library. The neighborhood association hosts community activities that give you the perfect chance to meet your new neighbors.
