Hometown Snapshot Louisville, Kentucky
The Derby City

Louisville is Kentucky's largest city and the 16th largest city in the U.S. It lies in Jefferson County, sitting on the Kentucky-Indiana border at the only natural obstacle in the Ohio River, the Falls of the Ohio. Louisville is the home of the Kentucky Derby, the most widely watched event in American horse racing. Louisville, Kentucky is home to several major corporations, including UPS International, Yum (owners of Kentucky Fried Chicken, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and A & W Restaurants), Brown and Williamson Tobacco, Papa John's Pizza, and Hillerich & Bradsby (known for Louisville Slugger baseball bats). Louisville is also home to the University of Louisville and the elite duPont Manual Magnet High School. Because of its proximity to Indiana, the area around Louisville is sometimes referred to as Kentuckiana.
