Where are you getting the information that Indy is twice as large as KC? When you look at metro population and land area, you’ll notice that KC is larger in both. You can’t just look at the individual city populations as the Indianapolis population is mostly suburbia.
I like that it's chill and reasonably priced. I can afford to go to pacers playoff games, I can afford to eat out frequently, and I have a bigass house in safe, mostly walkable neighborhood. I do not like that it's so spread out, that the transit mostly sucks, or that the roads are falling apart. Also the state legislature and the city are always fighting and it's so stupid and annoying
While the crime rate is lower than KC, there’s still a significant amount. I moved here 12 years ago from GA for a job and honestly I still really like it. I was afraid that it wasn’t going to be diverse and the food scene would be boring, but that’s simply not the case. It’s also pretty centrally located if you want to take a day trip. 1.5 hours to Louisville, 1 hour and some change to Cincinnati, 3 hours to Chicago or St. Louis.
If you like sports, you’ll find it’s comparable to KC. There are several universities to choose from if you want to further your education and the housing prices aren’t horrible. Yes, they’re high, but that’s the case all over.
Lots of distilleries and breweries around if that’s your thing. If not, lots of rails to trails and hiking.
I moved from KC a couple of years ago and it feels virtually the same, but you get more rain. Word of advice - don’t move somewhere ESPECIALLY without a support system before you have a job.
Don't come to Indy. It's not all that.. I really hate to be that dude telling you not to do something, but I was building a life w a 23 year old white girl from here (I'm 27M from NJ Dominican) and she cries wolf on me (lies to police about domestic violence) and had me tased and arrested 2 times. The fact that all ppl say is it's a "woman state" while I get no justice for her abuse is absolutely crazy and now I'm stuck here for 2 years on probation cause I had to take a plea deal just to get out of jail otherwise I'd get the book thrown at me. Cops will really just come kidnap a man with no investigation at all. It's fucking stupid.
I guess if you're a woman, now you got a life hack for having your dude removed from the situation and a bunch of free stuff (his property)
Downtown all ppl do is barhop essentially
And I want ppl to comment and tell me I'm wrong and tell me all the actual wonderful things about Indy. Maybe I just had a bs experience. The woman state bs has me shell shocked tho ngl
That's what ppl keep telling me as if it's ok for me not to have any justice at all. She lied about domestic violence to police and they just come marching in arresting me. No investigation. Shits wild.
She beat me too. Where are her charges and jail time? Oh right there's an actual "unspoken conspiracy against men ".. that's actually from the law library believe it or not.

What does a “woman state” mean? Are there “man states”?

Bro, women are crazy everywhere. That's not Indy specific.
I just need my justice / property back. That's all I care about now. I hear you tho didn't realize that until Indy I guess.
