Downtown Indianapolis

What it’s like to live in Downtown Indianapolis

Downtown Indianapolis pulses with urban energy where historic buildings stand alongside sleek high-rises creating distinctive skyline views throughout the central district. Renters enjoy exceptional walkability to restaurants, professional sports venues, and major employers with genuine pedestrian-friendly design unusual for typically car-dependent midwestern cities. Events at Lucas Oil Stadium create occasional congestion affecting everyday movement through some areas, but young professionals appreciate both the neighborhood's growing energy and strategic positioning at the center of Indianapolis' developing cultural renaissance with remarkable value compared to similar downtown districts in coastal cities despite premium positioning within the local market but with authentic urban experiences increasingly valued throughout the midwest.

City Guide for Indianapolis, IN

Indianapolis is an enigma. Naptown, Indianoplace, and references by Baltimorians too unsavory for this site are all used as paramount putdowns about a city thought to be blander and more uninspired than powdered water. But Indianapolis is the capital city to movies set in the Hoosier State such as Hoosiers, Breaking Away, and Rudy (if ever you've wanted to see a grown man quiver and cry with joy rent these, you'll see). Plus, at certain times of the year, Indy becomes as frenetic as any city on earth; like its New Years, Mardi Gras, Fourth of July, and Robert Isray Appreciation Day all rolled into one.
