The third largest city in the Midwest and the capital of Indiana, Indianapolis is quickly shaking off its reputation as a slow-paced city. Downtown Indy is now the place to be, with the construction of townhomes and highrise condominiums fueling its resurgence. Sports-crazy yet offering world-class theatres and museums, shopping and historic sites, there's something for everyone. Come see the Indianapolis 500 motor race, the Indiana Pacers, Fever, Indianapolis Colts or the Indianapolis Indians, enjoy the galleries and a show, and take in the friendly Midwest hospitality.

Indianapolis is the home of many colleges and universities: Butler University , Martin University, the University of Indianapolis, Marian College, Ivy Tech Community College of Indiana, and Indiana University-Purdue University at Indianapolis (IUPU). Major employers include Eli Lilly & Company, Allison Transmission, Royale Coach By Monaco Inc., and Rolls-Royce.

Good new for Indianapolis homeowners: According to the Wall Street Journal's Real Estate Journal.com, the Carmel, Indiana / Indianapolis, Indiana area is one of the least likely areas in the nation to see falling home prices over the next two years (2007-08).
