How long does it take to sell a home in Highview?

Homes in Highview go under contract in an average of 36 days. Going under contract is only half the timeline; figure roughly 9.5 weeks in Highview from listing to keys.

Where exactly is Highview?

Highview is a Louisville neighborhood centered on the 40228 ZIP code, in southeastern Jefferson County.

Highview covers the 40228 ZIP in southeastern Jefferson County, between Okolona to the west, Fern Creek to the east and Newburg to the north, along the Outer Loop, Fegenbush Lane and Beulah Church Road. It was a census-designated place until the 2003 city-county merger, when it was annexed into Louisville Metro. Two tiny independent cities, Hollow Creek and Spring Mill, sit entirely inside the ZIP.

What is Highview actually like?

If you have been reading Highview market numbers somewhere else, check which ZIP they came from. Highview's core is 40228 — Highview Park at 7201 Outer Loop and Marion C. Moore School at 6415 Outer Loop are both in this ZIP — but the name is also applied to adjoining parts of 40219, and the two ZIPs do not trade at the same price. This page is 40228.

The build-out here ran from the 1950s through the 1970s. It is the most owner-occupied area on this site, with only about a quarter of households renting, and it has grown faster than anywhere else on this list — from roughly 11,000 people in 2000 to over 18,000 now.

One thing people assume and get wrong: Jefferson Mall is not in this ZIP. It is 40219.

What schools serve Highview?

Highview is in Jefferson County, served by Jefferson County Public Schools. JCPS uses a school-choice system rather than strict address-based zoning: your address identifies a school that serves it, and families apply during an annual window that also includes magnet and optional programs. Use the district's SchoolFinder to see the options for a specific address.
