My wife and I are moving to Indy in December for a new job that I'm starting. We are renting for a few months as we look to buy a house and start a family there (hopefully on the outskirts in Greenwood, Fishers, Carmel, etc). I have been surprised how high the rent has been for some of these spots, granted we are looking for a short term lease, as the housing market in Indy and the surrounding areas seems very very affordable in terms of buying. Is this the normal trend or is it just a consequence of the current market? My wife and I chose Indy over much more expensive areas with pharma companies because of the lower cost of living and housing market and we are very happy with the homes we are seeing, just surprised the rent seems so high.

On southbound SR 135 (Meridian St) south of the Marion-Johnson County line.

Glad they are giving it a shot. Drivers still haven’t figured it out, although there is some signage trying to explain it.

INDOT could probably do a better job of getting the word out about the concept of a zipper merge and how it’s supposed to work and the benefits. Still, I’m happy to see they are giving it a try.

It’s been like 3 weeks and they won’t answer their phone, their website is down and they don’t pick up trash anymore. I can’t find any news about them closing down. Does anyone know anything about them?

I’m a supporter of the 2nd amendment. I’m a firearms owner.

… but I get so annoyed each time I hear that Barney Fife impersonator and the entire advertisement for the upcoming gun and knife show. It’s infuriatingly annoying and it’s making a joke out of mishandling firearms. This feels like the exact opposite of what they should putting out there.

I don’t normally get worked up over things like this, but I’m annoyed enough to be writing this post. 🤣

Hello! I am looking for a serving job downtown. Full time or part time. Anyone know of anything or know of anyone who loves their serving job downtown? I have good experience

Just wanted to check if that sounds like enough time.

Hello Indianapolis,

I'm dropping people off for the concert tonight (around 6 pm) and not wanting to drive back to the hotel. What can I do to kill time for 5 hours? I'm from Philly so I'm thinking something like South Street (blocks of shops and people) or Penn's Landing (waterfront with random events and attractions). I don't want to worry about parking or spending lots of money. I also don't mind finding a bar or restaurant to hang at to read. Something possibly close by the Lucas Oil Stadium, but I don't mind driving a few miles to be able to park my car. Is there a hang out for all the parents while their kids are at the show lol? Thanks in advance!

I am attempting to find an average annual income of the Eagle Creek Area. Basically the apartments around the Target on 38th Street and Eagle Creek and north heading towards the Ben Davis Area. Is there a way I can find this info easily ?

We have decided to not travel for the first time for Christmas Eve and are looking for some fun new traditions to do. It there any family friendly Christmas activities/things to do open on Christmas Eve? I wanted to do a Christmas train but none of them run on Christmas Eve from what I’ve seen.

Hi. My family and I will be moving from San Diego to the Indy area in about 3 weeks and I’m looking for recommendations as to where to buy the winter essentials to survive the winter. We only have jackets so we need thermals, mittens, rain and snow boots etc. Which places and brands do you recommend to get them? Does anyone know if it’s cheaper to get this there because of the high demand or down here in California?

My fiancé and I are traveling to Indy next week 4-9 and the only alcohol he drinks is hard cider. Anybody have recommendations for a restaurant that may serve local(-ish) hard ciders?

They were super cool. I ask for a pic to send to my little sister but they politely refused saying they’re not really supposed to. They tipped super well and gave me some souvenirs to send to my sister. I was adamant that Indy was happy to have them and that I hoped that they had a wonderful rest of their time here. Should be a fun weekend!

I'm making this PSA for those who don't know that they can vote in any vote center in Marion County. I know people have been having to stand a long time to vote, but maybe there's one closer to your work that doesn't have long lines. I'm around the Speedway area and there were no lines in the one on W Lafayette Rd one.

Found near Cardinal Ritter, no chip. Vet estimates he’s about 6 months old, he’s very, very sweet but we can’t keep him. Is anyone missing this dog?

We can keep him overnight in our garage but we can’t adopt him. Help me reunite him!

Looks good pic is first floor elevator lobby.

My first two trick or treaters were Jesus Christ and an alien holding an alien baby. I took one look and laughed until I cried. The mother started laughing with me We both have tears in our eyes as Jesus with a boy band wig looks on confused as hell.

To make this even funnier, my kid is running around the neighborhood dressed as a demon (her choice).

Looking for restaurants with good Louisiana gumbo. Chicken, sausage. Seafood, whatever. Just good gumbo.

If anyone remembers Mitchell seafood restaurant in Clay Terrace, in my opinion they had very good seafood gumbo.

I recently tried the gumbo at Yats and surprisingly just thought it was ok.

Where are the hidden gumbo gems in Indy?

In Indy, near east side, Windsor park, Citizens group, typical residential.

I'm seeing issues with my residential water system. Some research says excessive water pressure is noted.

My exterior faucet water pressure reads 100 psi (I have a screw on, plumbers pressure gauge)

Before rechecking, I shut off the water heater, and it's valves, I opened two interior taps and after letting them run 4 minutes the exterior faucet reads 97 psi.

What's the max pressure the city should provide ?

Also, where would I find a pressure regulating valve, if my property has one ? Would it be outside in the city's utility box ? I don't see any device inline in my basement.

Looking to get a mini split for a decent sized sunroom, anyone had one installed and liked who they worked with? I am going to be providing all materials and the unit. It’s about a 35ft run for the line to the condenser that is a straight shot and already has 2x4 to hang line, punching into the garage 2ft from electrical panel and 4 ft from where drain line will go. Not working in any difficult areas, no attic work etc. Also, I’m not going to be doing it myself. I know there are a lot of DIY kits and how to vids, but we just bought the house and this is a sub out project for me.

This is my cat Silver. He's been missing since Tuesday afternoon (10/29/2024) and was last seen near the racetrack in the neighborhoods around school 61, Clarence Farrington. He responds to his name "Silver" most of the time and is generally kind towards strangers. He's about 10 pounds, grey tiger stripe, greenish yellow eyes, fraying black and white collar, and no chip or name tag. Please keep a look out for him and if you find/see him please DM me.

Im currently 26 and grew up in Indy. I finally became eligible to vote 2 years ago since I've been a resident the whole time I've lived here. I live on the NW side of town and voted at St Luke’s United Methodist Church. Whole process from the moment I stepped out of my car was like 15 minutes. It felt great honestly. My only concern was it seems some elderly people had a bit of trouble with their ballots. Many of them didn't know how to get to the printing screen. I assisted a few of them with the process but it seems there really wasn't anyone that could help others idk if it's common procedure to keep the vote confidential but that would be my only complaint about voting. I hope this helps someone out there that's nervous of going to vote the first time. I know I was.

Does anyone know of any liquor stores that sell THC infused bevvies? I have found a couple of brands at The Rural Inn liquor store…but was wanting to find some others. My husband doesn’t drink alcohol, but enjoys a gardening every once in a while. Thanks!

My 12 yr old XB needs minor suspension work, it has started in with the "Indy Rattle".

Any one recommend a shop, I'm in the near east side.

Thanks
