Now, we'll dive deeper into the Hoosier State and discover more things about this beautiful place.
The rate of violent crime in Indiana is slightly higher than the national average. According to recent data, there were approximately 400 violent crimes and approximately 2,600 property offenses per 100,000 persons. Indiana's violent crime rate is thus around 9% higher than the national average. Property crime was close to the national average.
On the other hand, the place offers some fantastic cities and villages. The Northwest Indiana region is home to nine of Indiana's top twenty safest cities. St. John was ranked first, Crown Point was ranked fourth, and Valparaiso was ranked fifteenth.
Because five distinct interstates intersect in Indianapolis, IN, Indiana is known as the "Crossroads of America." Indiana is the entryway from the east coast to the west coast. The rail system in the United States is vital to the highways that transport products. Indiana is home to several major freight rail lines.

You will need a place to reside whether you are relocating to Indiana or visiting for another purpose. Indiana real estate, homes, and houses will continue to be in high demand in 2020. In 2019, the number of homes for sale in Indiana climbed by 3% to slightly more than 4%. Several factors are contributing to Indiana real estate's high demand and value growth.
Real estate values in Indiana rise as a result of both business and inhabitants. Indiana is a low-regulation, business-friendly state. The minimum wage is cheap, schools are excellent, and public services are extensive. Furthermore, tax rates in neighboring Illinois are encouraging more firms and residents to relocate to Indiana. Finally, Indiana has shown to be a secure, thriving state that is also a fantastic location to live.
Northwest Indiana real estate had some of the most significant improvements in 2019. Last year, the number of homes for sale in Northwest Indiana climbed by 5.6%. We anticipate that this tendency will continue. The most significant contributing elements are the increased number of residents from Illinois and the recent economic expansion in Northwest Indiana.
One advantage of residing in Indiana is the state's dedication to environmental preservation. Indiana is home to some spectacular natural places.
The state's northern boundary is with Lake Michigan. You can visit the Indiana Dunes State Park and the Indiana Dunes National Park while you're here. You may relax on the beach, climb the sand dunes, or go for a trek through the woodlands along the lakefront.
Hoosier National Forest is located in the state's south. The United States manages this forest preserve. The Forest Service. The Hoosier National Forest encompasses about 200,000 acres of property in southern Indiana's Appalachian foothills.
Indiana's culture is diverse. There are several densely populated places in Indiana. Among these are Ft. Wayne, South Bend, Indianapolis, and the Northwest Indiana region all within commuting distance of Chicago, the third-largest city in the United States. These regions have the commerce, entertainment, and cuisine that you would expect to find in a bustling metropolis.
There are several smaller cities in between, separated by extensive farmland. This provides tremendous balance for Indiana people. Those who reside in the city might live a more urban lifestyle. People who live in the country might enjoy a calmer, more communal existence.
Indiana has a little bit of everything, so there is something for everyone. When you need a change of scenery, get in your car and drive down the highway (Indiana is known as America's Crossroads) to meet a new portion of this great state.

The state's job market provides an answer to the issue of why relocate to Indiana. Indiana is home to small, medium, and large firms. Indiana's key sectors include agriculture, energy, manufacturing, steel production, healthcare, and professional services. Manufacturing employs around 17% of all nonfarm employment. Major corporations are concentrated in medium and bigger cities. One of the advantages of relocating to Indiana is that the state has a lower unemployment rate than the national average.
Certain industries in Indiana are heavily concentrated in tiny geographic areas, which is a distinctive feature of the state's economy. Northwest Indiana, for example, is home to some of the major steel mills in the United States. More than half of the blast furnace capacity in the United States is located in Lake and Porter Counties.
Another example is that 80% of recreational vehicles (RVs) manufactured in the United States are constructed in Northeastern Indiana, in places like Goshen. Elkhart County is known as the "RV Capital of the World," whereas Warsaw, Indiana is known as the "Orthopedic Capital of the World" due to the presence of three large orthopedic medical equipment firms.
Here are some more details on the Indiana job market:
The population of Indiana is increasing. Indiana now has a population of approximately 6.79 million people. This is a 300,000 increase over 2010. More information about Indiana's current population can be found here. In addition, the Indiana University Kelly School of Business publication INContext offers an excellent chapter on Indiana's predicted population growth until 2050.
Many surveys have placed Indiana as one of the most affordable states to live in. Yes, our wages may be slightly lower than those in other states. We make up for it, however, with a low state-income tax rate, constitutionally protected property tax caps, near access to important resources, and a competitive business environment that welcomes new companies.
According to U.S. News & World Reports, Indiana is the third cheapest state. If you search the internet for this question, you will most likely discover multiple studies ranking Indiana as one of the top ten most affordable states.
The four seasons have been experienced in every section of the state. Winter, on the other hand, is a wildcard. Temperatures in the spring and fall are mild, with highs in the 50s and 60s and lows in the 40s. Summer brings days in the 70s, 90s, and even over 100 degrees. Winter is a wild card.
Indiana is a large state that stretches for 250 miles from north to south. The southern portion experiences snow and cold in the winter, as does the center section, albeit slightly more and slightly colder. Northern Indiana, on the other hand, has all the hallmarks of a hard midwestern winter.
Lows in the teens and single digits are common in Northern Indiana throughout the winter. Temperatures below zero are not uncommon. Northern Indiana has the most snow, and there is a phenomenon known as lake effect snow in a few select areas.
In essence, snow bands form off of a huge body of water, like Lake Michigan, and, if conditions are ideal, these bands will dump snow on a region. I have always resided in northern Indiana, which is one of the select locations where this occurs occasionally each year. Sincerely, there was a time when my neighborhood had a 20-inch snowfall in a single day. They had five inches at two miles. They had none five kilometers distant.
The educational system of Indiana is strong. In Indiana, approximately 87% of students complete high school. Of those, over 63% enroll in colleges right away. You may get more information on Indiana's schools here. The Indiana Department of Education works hard to make information about the state's public schools readily available.
Indiana's colleges and universities are among the best in the country. In the past, Purdue University excelled in the sciences and math, producing generations of graduates. Indiana University, Notre Dame, Ball State, Butler, and Valparaiso University are a few of the state's other prestigious universities.
These are just some of the basic things about Indiana. In our next post, we'll learn more about this beautiful Hoosier State.
