Review of Indianapolis, Indiana

Star Rating - 11/17/2009
One thing I can say about the area I live in Indianapolis is that it is very peaceful. I live in an apartment complex on the north side of Indianapolis near Carmel (96th and Keystone area) and I never have any problems with life. Rent is $765 for a 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment with a fenced in patio with small garden area where I plant a garden. My apartment is facing a lake and has washer/dryer in my apartment. I have a good job as a special education assistant and make around $14/hr, which I manage to live on while raising my two children. So, I would say that the quality of life here is peaceful, but there are not a lot of exciting things to do in the area. Now and then, there are concerts, plays and shows that come through town, but on the average, there just aren't a whole lot of fun, recreational activities to do on a budget with children without repeating them more than once.

North side is the suburbs, and not much crime. Further north you go, less racial diversity.
