Louisville is quite dirty and unsafe.
Greyhound station is in downtown Louisville, but head west and there are many projects.

Since I didnt want greyhound food I decided too venture around downtown and get something too eat and everything was closed so I kept walking at around 10th and market found a soul food place and it was excellent but people were telling me too call a cab it was so dangerous.

best tip: eat at a rest stop, Louisville doesnt have anything too offer as far as food downtown

Well, before all this got erased, I had a tip on police and where they like to hide.

Watterson:
On the down-angle of many of the hills, under bridges, especially near Breckenridge Lane and Newburg.

Gene Snyder:
Heading south, just past the Anchorage Exit, they sometimes sit in the center just beyond the bridge. A bit father down, there's at times a cop hiding under the Old Henry Road bridge.

Cars to look for:
Besides the regualr patrol cars, photo below, there are undercover cars as well. Be on the lookout for any color (usually white) Ford Crown Victorias, dark windows, external spotlight on the driver's side. Also, there are a few Chevy Camero's out there, one green one, dark tinted windows, one white one, I think #148, has a Louisville Police symbol on the doors.

Louisville can be a generally safe city. It has all the inherent dangers, though, that any large city has. Personally, I would avoid the West end of town (like, when the street numbers starting getting above 20th), but just use your discretion. There was an article today in the paper that was saying they seem to get a bad rap in Portland, when really they're just a close-knit community with a lot of heritage. Could be, I don't know. It just seems like most of the serious crimes this city has had, have taken place in that area.

Stay Away from the West end of Louisville, weekly murders and daily roberies right in day light hours.

If you carry Krispy Kreme donuts (apparently a cult donut brand in US) through airport security, you will find that it'll cause delays.
