It also has a rich history, being the birthplace of famous figures like Abraham Lincoln and James Dean. With its mix of industries and cultural attractions, many people have chosen to make Indiana their home. Here are what some users have to say about living in this state.
1. From "Megan" on BestPlaces: "I've lived in Indiana my whole life and I absolutely love it here. The cost of living is affordable, the people are friendly, and the scenery is beautiful. Plus, there's always something to do, whether it's attending a sporting event or visiting a museum. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else."
2. "Matthew" shares on BestPlaces: "Indiana has a lot of small towns that offer a sense of community and a slower pace of life. However, if you're looking for more excitement, the larger cities like Indianapolis and Fort Wayne have a lot to offer in terms of entertainment and job opportunities. It's the best of both worlds."
3. "Sarah" on BestPlaces adds: "As a parent, I appreciate the excellent school systems in Indiana. My children have received a great education here, and I feel like the community really values education. There are also many family-friendly activities and events throughout the year, making it a great place to raise a family."
4. On the flip side, "John" shares on BestPlaces: "While Indiana has its perks, one major downside is the weather. Winters can be brutally cold and snowy, and summers can be hot and humid. It's not for everyone, and if you're not a fan of extreme temperatures, you may struggle living here."
Overall, it seems like Indiana offers a balance of affordability, community, and opportunities. However, the weather may be a challenge for some. Ultimately, it's a state that has something for everyone, and these user reviews provide a glimpse into what it's like to live there.

Church Planting - 3/24/2008
I find that there are great opportunities for planting new churches, culturally progressive but fundamentally and doctrinally conservative in Indiana. I see the state moving toward making strides in promoting jobs and new industry to our state. That coupled with the growing cities in the state is impacting the smaller outlying communities. The influx of people moving into those areas of job growth potentially proves to be fertile soil to plant new and vibrant local churches to serve those growing communities with the Gospel of Jesus
