The only happy people in Indy are those who commute from Hamilton County, assuming they can afford it. Small town living in Indiana is great. Towns like Greenfield, Frankfort, Tipton, and others are the places to be.

I grew up in Frankfort, Indiana. Used to go to Lafayette Square Mall, Castleton Square Mall, 38th Street KMart, and White Castle on Saturdays. My favorite was the caramel corn at GC Murphy's in Lafayette Square Mall. My Uncle Mark lived in Indy and my Grandma Richie lived in Beech Grove.

We have lived in Carmel for 20+ years. As the kids would say: "Carmel is so extra." You got the majority of the list correct but...Roundabouts are definitely NOT a con. The traffic moves so much better than before they went in.

Interesting....is not known for anything...except the single biggest sporting event in the world. Indpls has no major public transportation system, but most drive cars and, if necessary, you can easily drive from one end to the other. I would have thought any realtor assessment would have included Indy's public school system. And lastly, while not everyone is interested in sports, we do have 2 professional teams that have been national champions....and are renowned for our collegiate tournaments and events.

Just graduated with my master's degree and looking to start a career in healthcare. Currently weighing my options...but to answer your question "fun" is a factor for me in determining where I want to lay down roots at least at this stage of my life. However, cost of living is always a sobering reality check. For me I guess it comes down to if I would be willing to buy a condo in a big city that offers lots to do for the same price that I could purchase a really nice house in a different part of the country.

Indiana just changed to daylight savings time. It was not like that when I was a kid. The roads are absolutely terrible. The crime rate in Indianapolis is off the rails. Do not live there. Get out before it gets dark. All of us who grew up there and had the means to get out, got out by 2010. And if you do commute there for work, you better install a swivel where your neck is. I would recommend not moving within 60 minutes of Indianapolis.

@@staceycarroll7973 Indiana started observing daylight saving time in 2006, and I’m still not used to it. Traffic and crime downtown can be rough sometimes, but to say it’s not worth living within 60 minutes of downtown Indy is certainly a stretch. Most of the highest-rated school systems and highest property values are within 20-30 minutes of Indy (some are even on the border). But hey, everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Downtown is currently getting a new building with shops and a parking deck. Also two upscale restaurants have just announced they are opening within a year-ish. Also Sunking is coming to downtown, so I guess Westfields rapid growth is making video's outdated quickly. Carmel has the same issue with police, they don't pull over a car with only one squad car, they send 2 to 5 squad cars, just like Westfield, not sure why but it's everytime I see someone pulled over at night.

What IF, the cost of custom homes is lower in one State than Another ? For example, TEXAS has nice custom homes from 300k. what would I need to do to build the same type of home in my State ? NM. or would I need to buy the Material from one builder have another construct it ? ANY IDEAS ?
@geesamanhomes Ай бұрын
The price of a custom home depends on a lot of factors, including the price of materials, costs of subcontractors, the knowledge and connections of the builder themselves, and several other factors. While it’s true that you may be able to build the “same” custom home for different prices in different states, there is no guarantee it’ll be the exact same finished product for the same price because of the factors I previously listed. If you’re wanting to build a house you saw in TX in NM you’ll have to own a piece of land where you can legally build the home, buy the blueprints for the home, have a custom builder agree to build it for you, then get a quote for what it would cost. The custom builder would then source the materials and labor for the build of the home. Or if you are savvy enough to buy materials and source your own labor you could do it all yourself. Just depends on your comfort level for that kind of a project.
