Crestwood is a very quick trip back to all the shopping and medical facilities in Louisville, like the recently developed Summit, Springhurst and Old Brownsboro Crossing. Each of these are less than a few miles from the Gene Snyder Freeway and house stores such as Costco, Kroger, Target, Barnes and Noble, Starbucks, Old Navy, Dicks Sporting Goods, Office Depot, Home Depot, OfficeMax and the list goes on and on.

Oldham County is one of the top ranked school systems in the state. In Crestwood, the South Oldham Campus has Camden Station Elementary, South Oldham Middle and South Oldham High. Just down the road is the newest school in Crestwood, Kenwood Elementary and across the railroad tracks, the oldest school in Crestwood is getting a huge update and makeover, Crestwood Elementary.

Buckner is a few more miles down I-71 from Crestwood.

It is smaller, but there is a lot happening in this not so large town. I call everything between exits 17 and 18 on I-71, the Buckner area even though much of it has Lagrange addresses.
