Find your perfect senior independent living community in Louisville, KY

Living in Louisville

Louisville is not just the largest but also one of the most welcoming cities in Kentucky. This historic city has several retirement communities with great amenities for seniors to enjoy a relaxing and slow-paced lifestyle. It is ideally located on the north border of Kentucky and a trip to several other cities and states in the U.S. takes just a few hours. The Louisville Standiford Airport also makes it easy for you to visit friends and family outside the city. The cost of living is low as seniors get to enjoy tax-free social security income and limited tax exemptions on pensions. You'll also enjoy a sales tax break on groceries.  

Seniors are quick to welcome people into their communities and there is also a local initiative called Age-Friendly Louisville, which works to help seniors stay active and engaged. All four seasons are great and the area is littered with fun and spacious parks with over 800 acres of trails, scenic views, and premium entertainment. The city itself has many unique traditions and you can join other seniors at Churchill Downs every spring for the famed Kentucky Derby.
