We already know how much living in Indy rocks. But now the rest of the nation does too, thanks to Forbes — which ranked the Indianapolis-Carmel-Anderson area No. 13 on its list of “Top 10 Places For Young Professionals To Live.”
Need the numbers? We excelled most in the Lifestyle category, scoring 79.12 out of a possible 100 (the No. 1 city on the list, Des Moines, IA, only scored a 43.77 here.) We also looked good in terms of housing affordability, with a 69.81.
But which neighborhoods are the most optimal for young professionals to live in? According to Niche
, which tabulates scores based on public schools, diversity, nightlife, and safety, here are the top three:
- No. 1 — Near Northside
- No. 2 — Canterbury - Chatard
- No. 3 — Broad Ripple
Did Forbes or Niche miss the mark? Let us know what you think.
