"Great place for everyone!"

What a great city! This is one of THE BEST places to raise a family. Amazing sense of community as well. The biggest issue I have with the city is the issue of parking and traffic during the school year. Because of Indiana University, this town is jumping when school is in session but is completely peaceful and quiet during the summer.

Lake Monroe is a great relaxation spot and having the University nearby makes it a great town for sporting events. The city is also ALWAYS ranked as one of the hot spots for retirees! I will definitely be looking here to raise my family when the time comes.
