"Butler, Indiana is a small town that has been going thru changes. like many towns, most of the merchants have pulled out. leaving some specialty merchants, hardware store, a couple of restaurants and some auto repair shops. The rural parts has seen higher than average growth due partially to the steel mill and associated new business that have sprung up within the last 10 years. Homes are being built quickly as people are upgrading and/or moving from the city life. Auburn, Indiana is a mere 15 miles away and has many of the features a large town has, but with the small town feel."
