Hey guys, Just signed up and Im looking for some recommendations on areas to look at and also what areas to avoid. Im originally from Pgh, PA and I spent the last 15 years in AZ. I moved back to the Pgh area temporarily and Im looking to hang my hat in Indiana! House isnt a huge deal breaker because I can fix and repair most things. Im looking for 15+ acres in a decent area. I wouldnt want an area that has high crime and drugs. Im looking for that neighborly feeling area where everyone watches out for one another...but their houses are far apart enough so they stay friendly!! Lol If you guys could shout out counties and areas that are great and what areas to avoid so I can start color coding my map of where to look.
Thanks and God Bless!

Welcome aboard and good luck in your search. I’ll Just say stay outside of indianapolis and for the most part you will find what you’re looking for.

Welcome to I-H, great group here. Good luck on your adventures finding a great place. If you look in the mid to Southeast area there are a lot of good small God loving towns. Some with none or one gas station to medium size communities. The mid to North for the most part is flat where mid to south is rolling too hilly.

I guess it's all relative, but it seems like meth-heads are everywhere in Lawrence and surrounding counties. Several arrests every day add up to hundreds per year, and those are just the ones that get caught.
I doubt Pennsylvania is any better though. They do leave you alone for the most part, just gotta make sure anything of value is locked up and put of sight.
Other than that, Indiana is not a bad place to live. We just traveled through West Virgina, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, and NYC. Southern Indiana is definitely a more friendly and probably safer place to live than those places.

Lots of small towns and public hunting in the south-central part of the state. Martin, Perry, Crawford, Orange etc. counties.

For 15+ acres with a neighborly feel, check out Brown County or Morgan County. These areas are beautiful, with that friendly, small-town vibe, but there's plenty of room to breathe. As for places to avoid, I'd steer clear of Gary and some parts of Indianapolis—they can have higher crime rates and aren't what you're looking for. When I was planning my move, I needed all the help I could get. I found some really helpful tips at threemovers.com/moving-from-georgia-to-new-mexico/. It’s about moving to a different state, but the advice made the whole process way less stressful. |
