Clarksville

A river town with the Falls of the Ohio and a major shopping corridor.
Clarksville sits along the Ohio River between New Albany and Jeffersonville in Clark County, Indiana. The town built up around the Falls of the Ohio, a fossil-rich stretch of riverbed that is now a state park. The Veterans Parkway corridor and the area around Lewis and Clark Parkway hold most of the commercial activity, including River Falls Mall and a long shopping strip. Residential neighborhoods spread north from the river through a mix of older streets and mid-century subdivisions.
 

What it is like to live here

Clarksville runs as a river-edge town with a strong commercial spine. The Falls of the Ohio State Park sits at the southern edge along the river, with a fossil bed, a visitor center, and walking paths. The downtown area, near Eastern Boulevard, holds older frame and brick houses, with mid-century ranches and split-levels in the subdivisions to the north. The Veterans Parkway and Lewis and Clark Parkway corridors hold the major shopping, including River Falls Mall and big-box stores. The Interstate 65 bridge connects directly to Louisville, with downtown Louisville about ten minutes away. The Ohio River Greenway runs along the riverfront.
