A family-friendly community on the outskirts of Louisville

Suburban Family-Friendly Great Schools Outdoors Peaceful

Resting on Interstate 65 roughly 15 miles south of Downtown Louisville, Hillview exists as a largely residential suburban city. With spacious apartment communities and sprawling homes and lots, Hillview has a variety of rental properties to suit any budget, style, and need. There’s a strong family-oriented vibe here thanks to the highly-rated schools that serve the area, such as Bullitt East High School, and the area’s proximity to the city but lack of traffic and commotion. To the east you’ll find Quail Chase Golf Course, to the west, Jefferson Memorial Forest, making Hillview a fantastic location to enjoy the scenic surroundings of the Louisville area. There are still plenty of shop and restaurants, mainly along Preston Highway. Those who commute into the city will appreciate the nearby interstate, making a drive into Louisville possible in less than 30 minutes.
