Neighborhood

The iconic Churchill Downs defines this small neighborhood in Louisville, Kentucky. The thoroughbred horse-racing track is most well-known for hosting the Kentucky Derby since 1875. The Kentucky Derby Museum is a great place to visit at Churchill Downs, publicly displaying this celebrated horse race over the course of history. Apartments for rent in this South Louisville community provide residents convenient access to the famous 147-acre racetrack complex that offers multiple forms of entertainment, such as night racing. Located just west of the University of Louisville, the neighborhood of Churchill Downs is about five miles from downtown.

The track isn’t the only attraction to the neighborhood, however. For a unique shopping experience, visit the Tickled Pink Memorabilia Mall, an older house converted into a retail store with continuously changing collections of antique, vintage, and thrift store items.
