Indiana

Florida Man here. Just looked up your gun laws. I am jealous because you're more based than FL, which is hard to do.

Born and raised in Indianapolis here

I love Indy. It's a rapidly growing city and is nothing like the India-no-place it used to be. It's big enough to be exciting but not so big that it's a nightmare to drive in, or too expensive. Great place to grow up, and actually is fun.

That being said, the rest of the state is mostly stupid rednecks and they're just about as stereotypical as portrayed. And the region (Gary area) is a shithole.

how hype is the fortwayne area tho

Meh, honestly couldn't tell you, I've only driven past it. It does look like there's actual civilization though.

pretty much yeah

shithole like most of the US

Fort Wayne native here. It's pretty much suburbs forever and ever. When they built the highway, they decided not to run it through downtown so it sort of died and people don't go there much. It is getting better though and they're working on a lot of cool developments.

There's surprisingly (for Indiana) a huge amount of diversity. Lots of Bosnians and Burmese (biggest population outside of Burma) and other peoples.

Overall comfy place to live and grow up. Definitely my favorite place.

we killed Ted Cruz's campaign. You are welcome.

Gary is basically Chicago

lived there for 3 years. Pretty small downtown but an otherwise nice place if you live in the good parts of town. You can buy a place in the country and be downtown in 15 minutes which is nice. Good jobs, generally good people and cheap cost of living. Pretty comfy overall.

Indiana has a lot of good: Good jobs, cheap cost of living, good, friendly people overall. Some excellent universities. Our government is transparent and fiscally responsible.

The bad: meth and heroin; hot humid summers and bone chilling winter. The laws sometimes feel very outdated, ie you can't buy alcohol on Sunday. Indianapolis is nicknamed "Nap City" for a reason also.

I will be leaving Indiana within a year or so because of a job opportunity but I will miss it.

Are here someone from Elckhart? How much people on RV factories are paid?

Hey is that the EC Arcelor Mittal in the background?
