Okolona
A farming community when it was founded in the late 18th century, Okolona still has semi-rural areas. But in recent years it's seen a great deal of new construction, from moderately priced starter homes to more upscale contemporary ones. It's near three of the area's largest employers - UPS, General Electric and Ford's Louisville Assembly Plant - As well as Louisville International Airport and I-265. Okolona is nine miles south of downtown Louisville, stretching along Fern Valley Road to the east and I-65 to the west. (The faux-Indian name refers to a large oak tree, now fallen.)
