Indiana, and Indianapolis Crime- Good place to liv

It is in no way 'Hyped up criticism." First off- it says the average commute time is 22 minutes-- HAHAHAHAAAA! ARE YOU KIDDING?! YOu might get 5 miles most times in 30 minutes or more. Live on the South side and morning commute that should be 20 minutes in 50-60 easy. Coming home- GRID lock! ROAD Construction never ends-EVER! The roads are the worst in the country:year round. I have had to replace 2 bent rims on a 2014 Lexus, because they could not be repaired. The people who commented below about the bland, hum drum, nothing to do unless you want to watch corn grow, and sit outside in the hot sun with no water, mountains, and nothing to do but go drinking on certain nights.Unless you bike or walk the trail- good luck with safety. The crime rate is extremely high! Being involved in Homeland Security, with many friends as detectives, and on the State and local Police....you'd be surprised at what goes on!!
I've traveled all over the world..., and moving here is the worst decision I ever made! I have tried to go out and meet people and get into the "CLICKS" that are imbedded here---good luck. Unless you are in college and just want to get drunk or go to Lake Monroe- you're screwed. Avoid this place!! Only Bloomington, Indiana is worth a crap to live- and its overcrowded with tons of students and wait lines for anything is mind blowing. Listen to these people, we who live here and have seen other places- DO NOT COME HERE- YOU WILL REGRET IT!!! The new 'attractions' bring sex trafficking and violent gang activity is ramp-id. There are many police motorcycle gang units because it is bad. the Moto GP, Indy 500, all bring people who trash and gridlock the city- don't buy the crap people feed you and say its great. Everyone I know want to move and plan on it- especially law enforcement and decent people. Those who have never lived outside Indiana don't know any better.. Don't be fooled into coming to this God forsaken place!
I have no reason to exaggerate. Just speak the truth. I am leaving my friends and few family members because it's bad. They are married with kids and tied to generational family farms- or they would move too.
North side of the look are snotty and to have a decent home over $400K easily. East side is filthy and crime ridden for SURE!! BAD. South side is more reasonable but horrid traffic into city- west side of 465 is desolate and everyone drives to Indy. Unless you live on the North in Fishers, Nobelsville or Carmel- you are considered trash by them. Its stupid.
