When I worked in Louisville I spent an extensive amount of time in that area of Louisville.

Some of the nicest people I ever encountered in the city of Louisville were in the 2 mile radius of Central H.S.

During the day I never felt unsafe or threatened a single moment... I can't speak for being there at night, as I was back to my office by that point, but I will say without hesitation that having worked extensively in the majority of Jefferson County during my time that the area close to Central was one of my Top 3 or 4 areas to work. FWIW, the other areas I enjoyed the most were Anchorage, St. Matthews, Jeffersontown, and Old Louisville (mainly because I loved being able to get Dizzy Whizz for lunch form time to time)

I felt worried/threatened the most when I was in Shively, Grade Lane (industrial area south of airport), and several parts of the West End.

I found the majority of people around Central were people who had owned their businesses for years and took great pride in their work and community. Several mentioned they moved away from areas of the West End to that immediate area because even a few miles made all the difference in the world.

Thanks for the insight there are areas in the west end that are absolutely excellent.
