Thank you so much for all of your videos on Indianapolis. I'm thinking of relocating from NJ, and have been stalking your channel for a couple of months now. They've been a big help, even though I'm still undecided as to whether I'll actually move, or where I might move to if I do. I really appreciate having so much substantive information available as a starting point for additional research.

We live in Plainfield and we love it. Great schools for our children and really enjoy the bike trails right off our subdivision.

This is a great comparison between the suburbs. Excellent job, Jason!

As usual, you did it again Jason. Very succinct, and clear comparison between the suburbs. Good job!

We just move to Greenfield and we love it thanks for your videos

I lived in Plainfield for several years and still miss it. The parks and trails are second to none.

I’m so glad you mentioned Plainfield. It’s always been a clean quiet town very close to downtown Indianapolis yet near rural areas. Much like Greenwood

Loved this video. Great points as usual... Need to really consider all options before I buy a home in this area. I keep coming back to Noblesville and you made a good case for it here

I live in Plainfield and I really like it here. I am not a homeowner, just an apartment dweller. However in the last year or so new apartments have sprung up like weeds. This is nice as Plainfield was sorely lacking with apartment homes. Newer apartments with a ton of amenities makes for high rents, at least more than what most folks are accustomed to. My current place is nice, 35 years old, but never been updated and because of the newer places my rent nearly doubled from $900 to $1700 monthly and still no upgrades and that makes it all very frustrating. But...on the other hand, (and I know nothing about infrastructure, but it seems Ike U.S. 40/Main St./ Washington was built with potential traffic in mind. There may be a lot of cars and traffic, but the traffic moves and it is really pretty easy to get from point A to point B. This is totally unlike Avon about 6 miles north of Plainfield. That traffic is horrendous & now under major construction to widen and add traffic lanes! No thank you!! However, i don't understand why Avon gets all the new shops and restaurants, especially with access and close proximity to The Indianapolis Airport, Hotels and Interstate 70! (And Thank You for your very informative videos here, for speaking slowly and distinctly, enjoyable and informative!)

It's cool to see a video about the city I work n live in from this perspective

Thank you for all the information to research. I'm considering moving to Indiana from Cali with my family, still not locked in though. But all your video's are really helpful and informative. Thanks!

It's great to show us good place that's great

Great video! I was hoping for something on Pendleton though.

Thank you so much ! I’m going to Indiana for the first time by the end of this month.

Good video! I agree with the choices. We live on the southwest side of Indianapolis, but we do all of our shopping in Plainfield. My parents live in Brownsburg. We are all originally from rural Illinois. I have lived in Indianapolis for 28 years now (I'm 53). I personally don't like Brownsburg, but I do understand why it's on the list. I worked second shift in Brownsburg for several years. I would get off work at 3 a.m. and get pulled over and harassed by the Brownsburg cops at least once a month. This also happened to everyone I worked with. I guess if you're out driving at 3 a.m. you must be up to no good. I never got a ticket but one night in the freezing rain the cops dumped all of my CDs in the floorboard and then dumped my toolbox on top of them. Then, the cop threw my license and insurance card at me and told me to go home. I gave a black coworker a ride home one night after work. The Brownsburg police pulled us over. They pulled me behind the car and asked 20 questions about my passenger. I finally quit answering and told them, "He's in the passenger seat. If you want to know something about him, ask him." The cop called me a smartass and let me go. This is the kind of stuff you'll have to deal with in Brownsburg. Every time I was pulled over in Brownsburg, it was based on a lie. It was always a taillight, a license plate light, or "I think you were speeding." I still own that car and it has never had a problem with the lights. I got sick of proving it to them every time I got pulled over. Then it becomes a probable cause thing...the bars close at 3 a.m. so you must have been drinking. I don't even drink. Yet, I had to do several sobriety tests while working in Brownsburg. When my wife and I retire, we will probably sell our house in Indianapolis and move to either Plainfield or Danville. I've really grown to like Danville over the years. It's a nice town with decent people, good places to eat, nice parks, etc., and it's still close to the things we like in Avon, Plainfield, and Indianapolis.

You're spot on with all these (( usedto live in most of these suburbs), owever I'm surprised you didn't mention Greenwood or Southporta areas..

Carmel and Fishers and Noblesville are in the most $$$$$$$ county in the state, and most of the homes and endless housing additions are built within a month. Check out Garfield Park, or Beech Grove, Fletcher Place, or Irvington. They're close to downtown and family friendly. Avon and Brownsburg like Fishers were tiny towns with one 4 way red flasher that have exploded with over priced and cheaply built homes. I lived in Indianapolis for 30 years. I now live south of Bloomington a love the small town life. I grew up near Noblesville. All the places he's mentioned are family friendly, but are very congested with poorly built over priced homes. I worked in Fishers and Carmel after the boom started for a large paint manufacturer/retailer as an interior designer and even the million dollar plus homes are rather poorly built.

I live in the Georgetown Crossing neighborhood of Indy and it's changed too. I also subscribed to this channel.

We are in TN and the housing prices here are going nuts, looking into IN as a backup. Do you do little day tours, maybe show us some areas and some home example walk throughs if we came up to visit?

Was hoping you would mention Camby IN. Very underrated

I've lived in many cities in the US. I lived in Indy several years in the late 80s and early 90s. I loved Greenwood and the Southside. My daughter lives there now, but she's moving back to Columbus because she's not really happy and she can work from home anyway. I really liked how fountain square seems to be getting cleaned up. I also lived in the Northwest side next to StVs hospital in 95 on 82nd street. I wouldn't go there again.

Not to sound like anything negative at all but prior to moving to the Indy area I never heard of Fishers or Carmel, I had heard of Avon and Plainfield. I lived in Carmel while looking for a place to build and was drawn to Westfield because it’s like the whole city is new and modern but still country, the areas that are older looking is getting a makeover. I like that it’s not easy to find an old house, it’s like the area was just built in the last few years. I really love the whole Indianapolis area and already in a few short years have a lot of pride in the area, especially Hamilton County!

My uncle lives in noblesville not sure what side but I would love to move to either noblesville or brownsburg. I really like brownsburg.

you should do a video on northern Hamilton co. Westfield, Sheridan, Cicero etc. We are close but still far away.

Can you do a video about the safest places to live in Indiana?

I mean good list but you forgot about Speedway, IN. Great small town that's really close to downtown and close to a lot of the amenities that you mention for brownsburg

Hi. Any videos or info on Chesterton Indiana? We are moving there next month. Just bought a house. Excited as it seems like a great area for a family (4 kids ages 3-9 and we homeschool). Very new to that area and to the state of Indiana in general. We lived in Phoenix AZ for 10 years, Ohio and Michigan before that. Thanks!

My family runs and owns Tim's Bakery in McCordsville, and ill tell you its one of the greatest places to live. I've lived in many places in Indy, but McCordsville tops all those places, imo

Hey! Can you make a video on housing near IUPUI campus?

Lived in in greenfield my whole life I recommend to anyone wanting to move to indiana

What is your opinion on Greenwood? I am looking for a location near the airport. Plainfield popped up on my radar before this video and glad you confirmed my find.

Cottage Home neighborhood is awesome and only a few blocks from mass Ave.

Hi Jason, Great job with the videos. Im now retired and looking for a quiet place in the Indy area for seniors. What area would you recommend for 60-70 year olds.?? Thank you

Great video, but what do you think about Whitestown being added to this list?

I'm from Harlem born and raised been in Indianapolis since 2012 it's cool it's not New York but it's a cool city with a laid back feel

Brownsburg is growing, there is a lot of jobs. More warehouses are being built.

Sad to see you ignored pretty much everything south of I-70. Beech Grove, Greenwood, Franklin are all wonderful towns. Bargersville is growing rapidly. Mooresville is a nice town. Oh well, I guess we south side residents can just enjoy ourselves.

Any references on Castleton?

What about Pendleton, IN, right next Noblesville?

I never hear you mention the rec center in Plainfield and what it offers and the Del Webb community in Plainfield. Nor do I hear you speak about the rural areas of Plainfield.

Plainfield looks pretty good, actually.

Jason, you said you talked 5 places around Indianapolis?

How do you feel about Greenwood/Southport area. I’ve been looking over there wondering if I should get a house

Plainfield has a Del Webb 55+ community on a walking trail and near the wonderful Plainfield rec center and Splash Island. Great Fitness Center!

I will be relocating soon... how is Whitestown? Would it be better to live in Zionsville and commute to Whitestown for work? Is whitestown as small as Zionsville?

How does this list hold up in 2023? Looking for a family friendly place with 30 min access to south side

News flash! Indianapolis, IN is the primary gateway to all the aforesaid suburbs mentioned.

Greenwood and bargersville are most def the most underrated. The far south side is quickly becoming the new Westfield with high end developments, but just slightly more rural. And you are right by 65 which can take you to any side of the city within 20 minutes. And Greenwood has a great water park and some of the best golf courses in metro Indy if you like that stuff.

Lived in Mccordsville for 15 years, great place! Skip Greenfield if you aren't white though, you will have a bad time lol

I'm looking for info for mc cordsvill

Eagle Creek Park is a nature preserve.

Is Mccordsville cheaper than Fishers?. Lower cost of living?

3-4b, 2-3b 25k 2015 & up built

Hi My name is komal and i need a shared room near University Of Indianapolis, I am a new student from India, my flight is on friday 27/08/2021, Kindly Help Me To Find Some Place To Live.

What about the South Side?

Greenwood is a good town. However all of those places around Indy are so expensive because everyone is trying to leave Indy. Violent crime always.

Carmel, fishers, and Noblesville have major drug issues circulating through those communities. A bunch of rich kids who can do and get whatever they want. Beware of those areas if you have teenagers!

Can you send me pics homes for sale in Brownsburg

Avon?

I live in Greenfield and it sucks. It's a supply-side hell, with an extremely corrupt government. And the people who live there, while friendly, are also extremely rigid. You don't want to be different in any way.

Mention the prejudice it's extremely prejudice.

Ya'll get a feeling this guy don't like the Southside?

all sundown towns

SPIT IT TF OUT ALREADY!

There is absolutely nothing rural about McCordsville.

South side? Greenwood, Franklin, etc? Or is it elitist snobbery?

*Most Racist Places In Indianapolis, Indiana...* *1. Carmel* *2. Fisher's* *3. Greenfield* *4. Greenwood* *5. Westfield*

I realize you live in Greenfield but I grew up on the far east side of Indianapolis and you forgot to mention that you need to be white because it is rule it is prejudiced and they do not like non-Caucasian people
