Crime and that it has a tv show

Thanks! Hope the videos help. Reach out if you have any questions!
lovely stuff
Thanks! Appreciate the kind words
very nice video dude, keep on the good work!
Thanks! Appreciate that!
I'm daily looking for a new career in greater Indy. It is my dream. While looking, your videos keep my enthusiasm and interest up.
1 = yes this is awesome , snow is cool cold is not
2 = nicknames are cool location is centralized majority of us population is close by which makes Indy a nice centered location.
3 = sports again great location and tightness of downtown to everything speedway is amazing as well , we are top 3 with swimming
4 = we like food
5 = live here cheep , take the extra money and visit anywhere you want
Thanks for the video and it looks like you live in fishers, so do I
Thanks for watching! I've been in Fishers since 2004 but we actually moved to the west side of Greenfield this year. Where are you in Fishers?
#6 Watch out for potholes.
Good grief! No kidding. The potholes are rough.
You are right, we don't get a lot of snow, not what you would expect. It does seem to snow often but rarely more than 3 inches at a time and frequently less. Moved here from Dallas and appreciate the change in seasons. The winter is a little long (and grey) but yes, spring and fall are stunning. The first cold snap of the year is a bit of a shock to the system but you get acclimated; unless it is below freezing, you usually only see me in a light jacket. When I first moved here for a job opportunity, I knew very little about the area ... the Indy 500, Peyton Manning played for the Colts, the Pacers played here and corn fields ... that is about it. Pleasantly surprised. Great downtown, beautiful parks/trails, plenty of things to do. I'm not in real estate but there are plenty of options for the lifestyle you are interested in. If you love to watch or play sports, few places beat it. Chicago, St. Louis, Louisville, Cincinnati, Columbus all reasonably close for a work trip or weekend away. Not perfect, I've lived in a number of big cities and they all have their positives and negatives but I'm glad to have lived here ... and both my kids were born Hoosiers!
Hey John! Great to hear! Indy isn't perfect but it certainly is pretty darn good.
What area do you currently live in?
@@LivingInIndianapolis - I am currently on the west side of Noblesville. Both my wife and I work in Indianapolis.
@@johnmininger7472 Gotcha!
Great information, currently looking at moving there from Oklahoma
Thanks! What part of Oklahoma are you moving from?
Living In Indianapolis im thinking about moving from Yukon Oklahoma.
Great video! I thought you are going to mention about Indy 500 when you mentioned about playing and watching sports. But overall a great view of Indy. People from out of state should watch your channel to know more about Indiana. All they know is cornfield.
Great point!
Great informative video! I will definitely consult with you if and when I move up there. I am still trying to figure out which city in Indiana is conducive to me lol
Ha ha! Sounds good. Let me know if you have any questions in the meantime!
Living In Indianapolis Will do so. Thanks!
@@richq1318 You bet!
I moved to Alaska 10 years ago. I miss Indy so bad
This help a lot cuz I’m moving to Indiana with my family and I’m a sporty guy are there any out door courts or Recreational centers for basketball or football
Absolutely! It depends on what part of the city you're in but you'll have choices everywhere. Indyparks.org is a good place to start with Indy. All of the suburbs also have parks departments and plenty of choices for basketball or football. Plus, you have facilities like the YMCA as well.
Still warmer than Minnesota winters!!!
Oh boy... that's for sure!
I love the pacers thats why i want to come to Indy but i want come because i am terrified of snakes
If you're concerned about snakes, in my experience you'll be pretty content here in Indy. I have not seen any snakes that weren't domesticated in 20+ years of living/growing up here.
Hey man, I'm heading to Indianapolis next fall for grad school and I'm wondering how much trouble I will have finding a rental. I have rough credit so I was hoping some places gave automatic acceptance to iupui students. Any advice would be helpful!
Not sure about automatic acceptance except for maybe on campus housing. When searching for a rental the credit score can certainly matter but it will depend on who owns the property. There is no set credit score. Some owners will take higher while others have more flexibility.
The area around IUPUI is pretty pricey but most of it has been rebuilt or remodeled in the last ten years or so. If you're looking to save money look for something on the south side of town and commute. Maybe look around the University of Indianapolis (U of I) and maybe you get a room mate.
I have a good tip, stay out of the intercity it's just unsafe. The small area in the downtown portion is OK but not great. If you,re planning on buying a house buy one outside of the ring of 465 and away from the bus routes. The better places around Indy are Carmel and Fishers on the north side. Greenwood and Franklin south. Avon, Plainfield and Danville on the west side. On the east side it's a bit tougher, you will need to go out farther to Greenfield and Knightstown. The bulk of the state is nice but like most big city's stay out of the central portion as much as you can.
Thanks for the tip Larry!
The north side of Indianapolis before Carmel &fishers is actually nice and safe, don't you think?
@@mindhunter8772 it's not bad but it's not as safe as Zionsville or Fishers. If you go 10 to 20 miles out it's even safer.
@@mindhunter8772 Absolutely. There are a number of really nice places along the north side.
@@mindhunter8772 Absolutely! There are a number of nice areas on the north side.
I’ve been binging all of your videos! My husband and I are so eager to move to Indianapolis this October! We’re looking to get an apartment and wondering which neighborhoods are the best/ safest?
There are plenty. What part of Indy are you looking at?
Hello,
Did you move already? We are planning to move from Iowa to Indianapolis
@@fatousene1940 hello my dear,are you still living in Indiana ?
@@sedematv4364 no we decided not to move yet.
@@fatousene1940 ah ok I see. Where do live in the states? Your name sounds as if you’re from Senegal in west Africa. As for me, I live in Senegal.
I want to live in indanapolis right now
Does indy have a lot of snakes if it does which place in indy has no snakes i am from the uk
how's the crime rate and are there alot of Homeless?
Hows the northeast side, like in castleton we just moved to bayview club apartments and we feel the area is a little sketchy?
It can be. But, there are plenty of nice spots. A little south of 82nd you'll find a number of really nice mature neighborhoods.
Castleton sucks it’s so congested it’s unreal, worked in the area for years and would never live there.
gosh I miss home
I stumbled upon your channel. My family are moving to Indianapolis soon. What cities are safe to raise children?
There are several areas in the city that are considered quite safe. It's just a matter of what part is the most convenient for your work and other needs. Most of the suburbs are phenomenal. Fishers, Carmel, Westfield, Noblesville, Zionsville, Avon, Brownsburg, etc... are incredibly safe and have some of the best schools in the state. I've got 2 videos that go into a little more detail and discuss the safety/schools. Top 5 Indianapolis Suburbs (covers larger suburbs) and Top 5 Small Indy Suburbs. If you have questions about what side of the city is going to likely fit what you need feel free to reach out! I'm happy to discuss it with you.
Carmel, Indiana
Hi,thank you for all the info you give us,i would like to ask you a couple of things,first one,is marihuana legal in indianopolis? Is there a lot of people from india in indianapolis? Is there chinese people in there? And last one,do are you obligated to have medical insurance in indiana? Oh,and what is the minimum wage ? Thank you
Minimum wage is $7.25. There is some diversity especially in Indianapolis. The cities surrounding are less diverse. Marijuana is not legal in Indiana.

Around 30 minutes for 30 miles.

Avon is a VERY highly rated place. I do have a video about Avon... th-cam.com/video/1kIF7-re1Uk/w-d-xo.html

Go colts
I guess you forgot all about the Indy 500......
Lol! No... just dedicated some other videos for that. This video just covered things that weren't so big and in the know
what is the name and address and phone number to your real estate company and do you have a website
www.livinginindianapolis.com
We (Compton Home Group) are located at 1425 E. 86th St, Indianapolis 46240... 317-932-8620
no place better than Indy.
What’s d cost of indipendant house there
Better than New York
In some ways yes...
@@LivingInIndianapolis Great videos tho
I mean this in a nice way, but you look like an off brand Jon Favreau (PSA)
Thanks? The younger or the "current" version?
@@LivingInIndianapolis I guess the current, I'm talking about Obama's speechwriter from Pod Save America, not Iron Man Director
@@BradenJay_ Ha! Gotcha
#6. Avoid MLK street at all costs
#7. Avoid tenth and tibbs at all costs
#8. Avoid the entire east side at all costs
The number one thing you should know about Indianapolis...
It sucks!
Got to agree. Grew up on the far east side in the 50s and 60s. Left it in '75. Nothing like what it once was...but then neither is the rest of the country. They don't call it indynoplace for nothing.
Do not move here . Lived here in 2022 . People are unfriendly, roads are destroyed and overcrowded,Homeless trash everywhere, crime is out of control. Worst than Detroit, Worse than Baghdad. Stay away!!!!
Don’t MOve here
Indianapolis is just like hell but worse
I saw cars disappeared in that snow because you feel a lot bigger than they are now
