Floyd County’s seat New Albany went from having about 1 million s.f. of open real estate a decade ago to a thriving river town today with a vibrant downtown scene. Home to the New Albany Riverfront Amphitheater and RiverRun, a family waterpark, the city is a family-friendly destination with a hopping retail, restaurant and attractions scene and walkable downtown.
Dating to 1819, Floyd County was formed from a portion of Clark and Harrison counties and today has a picturesque wooded riverfront and beautiful countryside living within a quick drive to downtown Louisville.
