Martinsville is a wonderful place to live. Conveniently located between Indianapolis (state capitol) and Bloomington (home of Indiana University), it is approximately 30 minutes either way. Fantastic community to raise a family, as most of the schools are 4 star schools. Small enough to still provide that "Home Town" feeling, but large enough to have lots to offer. Plenty of places to dine out, shop, or site see. Need more "Big City" life, 30 minutes and you are there. Low crime rate, low property taxes, wonderful community! - Thu Aug 13 2009, 09:18
