As in many communities across the United States, it is hard not to see the influence the Hispanic/Latino community has had on Louisville over the last decade. The fastest growing minority community in the region, Louisville’s newest neighbors come from all over Latin America and the Caribbean and have brought with them their own unique cultures and traditions. From Argentine bistros to Cuban sculptors to Mexican tiendas, the Hispanic/Latino community in Louisville Metro is itself a very diverse community, but one that is unified by the common thread of a mother tongue.

Hard-working, family-oriented individuals in the community have made great contributions to Louisville Metro’s quality of life over the last decade by investing in both businesses and neighborhoods. An increasingly important part of Louisville’s diverse quilt of communities, the Hispanic/Latino community will continue to thrive and be welcomed by Louisville Metro residents for years to come.
