What's it like there?
Is it costly to live there?
Are there any decent warehouse/factory
jobs?

It's not too bad, depending on where you're at. It's been hot this summer all around the city, but you're usually good if you're just minding your own. They revamped public transportation recently. Still not great but a lot better than even just a few years ago. Depending on where you're at, you can damn hear hit a trail and walk from one side of the city to downtown to up north lol.

Any specific places you looking at in the city?

Nah, cost of living is actually surprisingly decent. I think we're like 8% below the national average. Downtown has become more expensive, but you can find cheap apartments/houses in low headache areas.

100%, I know we have like two Amazon warehouses but they're some distance from Indianapolis exactly. But there's a lot of factories/warehousing and manufacturing plants around here or like a 20/25 min drive away.


Also bro, keep in mind pence was our former governor and Trump won by almost 60% here. Indianapolis can be cool even though you'll definitely see confederate flags on some cacs truck but most of Indiana is trash. KKK was birthed here.

If they're into something different, we have some fire barcades close to downtown. Broad Ripple up north is always a good spot. It's super diverse so you got Jamaican spots not too far from some kinda hipstery bars and food spots. Downtown has shyt like the world's biggest children museum that also does tight ass adult nights throughout the year. The IMA/Newfields is a great art museum. Lots of variety and a beautiful greenhouse/park. Free first thrusday of each month I think. Out by fountain square to downtown, they do first Friday every month which is like a big indy art, music thing where you can walk the trail, hits stores to hear local artists /rappers, see local artists works, eat and drink good etc. Downtown is usually where most bigger events are thrown, since that's where the bigger clubs and shyt are at, but depending on what they're into, they can find some interesting shyt pretty much everywhere. Lots of nice camping and trail spots, too.

I ain't had this yet but this is my on goto this month if you like seafood:

I had a colleague who was a curator there who just resigned from there bc of racism and sexism.

Her name is Kelli Morgan

No shyt? I used to work there a couple years ago during the summer and I was like one of the few black people working there on the floor when I was a guide. Shame they're losing their diversity. The majority of people working in my department were young white girls going to iupui or butler

Was she the curator for the African section? That place is fuego even if it's kinda small.

Newfields curator says discriminatory workplace is 'toxic'
