Each Jefferson County neighborhood must have had <em>at least<\/em> <strong>three homes<\/strong> sell for more than $500,000 since Jan. 1, 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This both helps and hurts neighborhoods based on their size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some are so small they don&#8217;t have many homes sell, even in a decade, much less a year plus. These tiny gems will not make our list but may still contain very expensive properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Larger neighborhoods might have a heavy helping of home sales but the wider range of values will dilute the upper-end Louisville luxury properties.
