In east Louisville, Kentucky is the charming Clifton neighborhood. If you're looking for a pedestrian-friendly, walkable community, Clifton is certainly that. Living here car-free is made possible with convenient bike paths and racks, wide sidewalks lined with trees, and public transit fares as low as $0.75 per trip. Residential areas of Clifton are fairly open and hilly and comprised largely of Victorian style properties. And with revitalization beginning in the early 90s, Clifton continues to be a desirable Louisville neighborhood to call home.
