Welcome to Louisville
Desirable living at the intersection of new and historic.
Home to a lovely historic downtown — and a thriving population — Louisville is said to have the perfect balance of the past and the present. Its many positive characteristics have helped it make numerous “best of” lists, including Money Magazine’s “Best Places to Live.” It offers its residents everything from wonderful local shopping to a beloved 50s themed diner.
The city was incorporated back in 1882 and is located in Boulder County. Its cherished history is on display at the Louisville Historical Museum. Fast forward to the present day, and Louisville has been recognized as one of the best cities to live in Colorado.
Many of the houses in Louisville have a charming and suburban feel. Although not the least expensive in the area, the city is a wonderful value. Not only has it been named one of the most affordable spots for renters, but homes are also more affordable than Boulder with the average home price sitting near $747,000.

Things to Do
Among its other highly-regarded qualities, Louisville provides the perfect amount of things to do. While there are plenty of events and entertainment, the city doesn’t book its calendar with an overwhelming number of festivities. This keeps life in Louisville even more balanced and relaxed.
Annually, residents make it a point to check out the Downtown Street Faire, go for a glide with winter ice skating, take a stroll during First Fridays Art Walks, and experience the sights and sounds at the Labor Day Car Show.
No matter the time of year, be sure to explore places such as the Davidson Mesa Trails, Louisville’s historic downtown, live music at
Waterloo, the
Louisville Historical Museum, and one of the area’s parks (including Meadows Park, Heritage Park, and the Coyote Run Open Space).
