About Indianapolis

Indianapolis and its surrounding suburbs are a wonderful place to live. Indy is widely hailed as the "Racing Capital of the World" because of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, home of the Indy 500 and Allstate 400 at the Brickyard as well as the "Amateur Sports Capital of America" for hosting the NCAA. Indy, also known as the "Circle City" because of our downtown's historic Monument Circle,  has several attractions outside of sports including museums, (which includes an award winning Children's Museum!), a large zoo, 100's of ethnic restaurants, several arts and historic districts, concert venues, and an amazing revitalized downtown and canal district. Several micro-breweries and wineries are appearing all throughout the city and suburbs as well!

If you enjoy sports, Indy is the home of many sports teams! We've got the NFL's Indianapolis Colts, the NBA's Pacers, the WNBA's Indiana Fever, our minor league baseball team The Indians, soccer's Indy Eleven as well as our minor league hockey team the Indy Fuel. Indianapolis has several attractions for visitors, with a mix of both a large metropolitan city and a simple Midwestern community. You will find beautiful architecture, monuments, and pristine cornfields in the Circle City.

Indy and its surrounding communities are wonderful places for our two-legged and four-legged children! Several of our surrounding cities (Zionsville, Carmel, Westfield, Noblesville) have made the "Best of" lists for raising families, top-notch schools, parks, communities etc. amongst all 50 states. Because of our central location, Indianapolis isn't very far away from other wonderful cities that worth checking out-like Chicago, Louisville, and Cincinnati. All three are a quick drive from the Circle City for a weekend getaway or even just a night!
