Review of Indianapolis, Indiana


Gotta be the most boring city in the US!!
Star Rating - 3/13/2006
Way before I was born, my mother and a few of her siblings had a choice on where to move after they graduated from high school in rural Arkansas...Indianapolis or Chicago. In my opinion, neither city would have been my choice but who knows what it was like in rural Arkansas back in the late 60s, so of course, my mother and family chose Indianapolis. If I could have channeled my pre-birth thoughts to her thoughts, I would have recommended another city--any other city than Indianapolis. This is one of the most boring, if not the most boring, city in the country! Even my 13-year-old complains constantly about there not being enough to do, so you know if a child is complaning on how boring a city is, then it really must be! I am currently in the process of trying to move somewhere with a much better and more stable climate than Indy. The weather changes as fast as a person can blink! It may be 70 degrees at 9am but then it can drop to 40 around 1pm! That's why there are so many sick adults and children here! Every time my children think that they're over their colds and sniffles, another weird weather system comes in and the cold sets back in. I would advise anyone not to move here!!!
