Review of Martinsville, Indiana

Outsiders Not Welcome!
Star Rating - 9/8/2017
If you are not originally from Martinsville - DON'T MOVE THERE! It is the most unfriendly, racially bigoted, cliquish "community". We built a home there, in an upscale community, and regretted our mistake instantly. We selected this location as it was an easy commute to both Indy & Bloomington, but the people... It's only a 20 minute drive from Bloomington but a world apart. Think - undereducated, provincial, and extremely conservative. I cannot caution people enough about Martinsville. I forgot what it was like to live in a community of educated, socially conscious individuals until we moved out of Martinsville.

It looks like you hit a raw nerve with the provincial country folk here. I guess they don't take to criticism of their narrow-mindedness too well.

It sounds like you are a bit of a snob! I relocated from North Carolina to get away from superficial people. You are right. You do not belong in this charming town where people are friendly and real. I found it not a bigoted town but one that has the right to express their views even though they may contrast from your views. One thing is for sure, they can spot a phony a mile away so if you did not "fit in" chances are you didn't want to fit into the quaint country lifestyle here. I daresay it was your misfortune and not theirs....................................oh hum!
