    I moved from Connersville to Fort Wayne. Fort Wayne is constantly growing and there are good schools here. Also it is a good city for raising a family because there are many activities. People come out in groves to participate. Also work is abundant. Compared to other states and cities Fort Wayne has a good cost of living.

    I used to live in muncie. I avoided the southside at all costs, that's where rhe meth labs were concentrated. Also, had a lot of crimes committed against me while I was there. Lots of stolen property and someone tried breaking into my house. There are parts of the city that look like a 3rd world country. Without ball state, there would be 0 reason to move there

    I’m about to take an offer to work near South Bend Indiana and found some not-so-good comments here. Is there any safe street to drive thru in South Bend? I’m starting to think if I can accept the offer🙃 Any suggestion for safe apartments? or neighborhoods? Thanks in advance

      Stay away from the north side of south bend I work at a restaurant there and used to live on that side of town. Gunshots every night, and my moms car was broken into multiple times. That whole side is just bad. Just look around and you should be able to find someplace there are lots of nice suburb areas and nice apartments as well. Also look in Mishawaka because it is very close to south bend and is a nice city.

    Being born in Marion and raised in Anderson I can tell you that if you need advice for living in the "hood" just mind your buiseness and don't disrespect people and you'll be safe for the most part

      Yup. How did we loose to Anderson? Probably cause we started importing the meth instead of making it locally.

    I've lived in Indiana all my life, nobody told me you could leave. There are only 2 types of people that live in Terre Haute, those who can't sell their houses, and those on the Fed Witness Protection Program. Tattoo parlors, and loans to payday stores are booming. The Pawn shop businesses are thriving too. You forgot Valparaiso's heroin problem.

      Born & raised in Connersville, I believe Richmond is worse. & for Richmond being near here, it's usually our go-to place to eat or shop. Lots of crime there though.
