    "I've been here for almost 3 years. It's pretty quiet. Nice farmers' market in the summer. Drawbacks: not walkable. Only one grocery store. More than 10 miles to closest hospital. Parks are lacking but they are working on improvements. So much new construction in the past 15 years that the infrastructure hasn't kept up. It's a work in progress."

    "My commute is relatively easy as I take main and back roads. There is easy travel to get to either I65 or 394. Wherever you need to go, it’s pretty simple to get your away around here using many of the main roads. "

    "I have lived here my whole life. It used to be a small town full of corn fields, and you always ran into people you knew in public. Now it is rapidly growing and the school systems are crowded. (I’m a teacher in NW Indiana.) There are pros and cons to the increase in population, but I love this town."

    "Commuting to major Metro Areas is somewhat time consuming. Train Stations are all at least 35 mins drive. And the train commute to Chicago would be an additional 45 mins to an hour depending on the station you depart from. Don’t move to CL if you want to have a short commute to work. "
