11 Best Places to Live In Indiana

8) Jasper

The southwestern region of the state is home to lovely little town called Jasper. Boasting points include comfortable summer temperatures in the mid-70s, very low crime rates, and low unemployment rates. Jasper is a small- town, suitable for folks who like to know their neighbors and desire a community feel. The Patoka River runs through town and the Jasper Riverwalk is lovely 2-mile trail for walking, running, and biking. The Indiana Baseball Hall of fame is located here, highlighting the high school, college, and professional sport stars that hail from Indiana. With a population of 15,500, the only positive aspect this friendly city doesn’t offer is compatible real estate prices as compared with the median annual income. While not outrageous, buying a home in Jasper will cost you (on average) 11% more than in the rest of the state.
