Any tips on good neighborhoods would be appreciated. Thank you, Steve

come to southeastern indiana you are a skip hop and a jump from all the great tracks in indiana and not to far from eldora:22:

Noblesville is a good location for getting to most of the tracks. Gas City, Kokomo, Eldora without battling Indy traffic. Bloomington and Paragon are a bit of a challenge. Not bad getting to Terre Haute, Lawrenceburg and Putnamville. Nice area for middle and upper income price ranges, but taxes are a bit steep and its on the I69 corrider. There's exceptions, but a good rule of thumb is to stay outside of 465.

Speedway is a good central location to everything.

We just left Plainfield after 30 years. It is a nice town, clean, well run, and has very good schools. Relatively low taxes and good home values. It has good access to all the major interstates except I-65 South. I would agree with upanddn....with the exception of Speedway, stay outside of I-465.

Plainfield....I hear it's a pretty nice little place. haha, it's where I call home and it's a nice mix of big city shops but in a small town. If you ever visit give "the coachman" a try, my local eatery and watering hole. EXIT 66 off of I-70.

I don't live in Indy but I thinks Mooresville is a nice community that has many tracks within a nice drive of it (THAT, Bloomington, LPS, ORP, IMS, Paragon, Twin Cities, Brownstown, etc.)

Just from an out-of-towner that has been hanging around Indy for over 50+ years.:6:

I would try to stay in Morgan Co. It is the county south west of Indy and has the cheapest tax rates around the area. The Mooresville school system is pretty good. Short commute (10 to 15 minutes) to 465 and easy interstate access to just about all the tracks. Home prices are not too bad either.

Thank you all very much for the replies. A big help! Even got a realtor connection! I dont have any kids. Getting around Indy takes a lot of time. If I want to drive back to MI, I'd like to be able to easily. I'll know in a week if i am moving. Thanks again guys.
