Yes this part of it really scares me. Right now i rent a 1800sq ft 3 bd 2 bath with garage, thats 8 years and old and i pay 995.00 month. Plus i make around $50,000 a year. I know i wont make nearly what i do here and i hope the cost of living makes the difference

Pack your bags! As where to settle in at, thats really up to you. Weather is the same across the whole state basically. I'm from Shelbyville and love it. I'm 20 minutes from Indy, hr from Bloomington, hr from Lawerenceburg, hr and 20 mins from Gas City & Kokomo, Tri-County 3 hrs minimum, 2 hrs from Eldora, Terre Haute 1.5 hrs. Not a bad area, good houses, prices great, good interstate access. Almost right in the middle of everywhere. Brownsburg is an hr where a lot of teams are. Always racing close to home and every weekend!

You might want to take a "test" trip out there. You are getting some great information. I have been making one to two trips a year for most of the last ten, and I love it. Unfortunately my work is fairly specialized and I there isn't any comparable work available up there for me, so I have to be satisfied with my trips north when I can take them.

I am curious, do you have a link to your pictures? It is probably right on your posts, but I am fighting a cold right now and thinking isn't my strong suit. Not like it ever is. . . .

I grew up in the Anderson & Muncie areas a LONG time ago but we could go to Armscamp, Kokomo, Ft. Wayne, Mt.Lawn, Richmond, the original old 16th street, Dayton, Sun Valley, Salem and Winchester and the longest drive we faced was about 2 hours. We never had the wing or non-wing options as all the big cars were CAGELESS. Been away from Indiana for a LONGER time and I really miss the hub of the racing activity but I really miss the Moonlight on the Wabash.

If I didn't hate cold weather so much, I'd consider moving there too. But a word of warning. Don't let any of those hoosiers try to tell you that a place called White Castle serves hamburgers!

Those look pretty good, but it is hard to judge from Facebook pictures. I know the ones that I put up are very reduced resolution. I see that you are a CNC machine operator, and I do believe that there are one or two manufacturing companies left in Indiana, but I couldn't tell you who is hiring. I do know that there is a demand for them here in Houston, what with all the manufacturing of oilfield equipment.
