  This is the most backwards infantile states I have ever seen!  Maybe if you are financially secure and don't care if Bubba takes all of your money for bs work and sheister-ish activities, then move here.  I am a Hoosier native and am embarrassed about it. 
Here is something to think about.  While the chamber of commerce, mayors offie and governors office tout how wonderful Indiana is and the low umeployment rate, great economy and such - in reality - Indiana is in the top five states for unemployment, the economy is on its back with no savior in sight.  The political administrations are not in touch with the real world and pass ridiculous laws - see the Marion county property taxes in 2007 for an example.
Why have so many companies left Indy?  Talk to the average resident for five minutes and ou will understand.  They are mired in the 7th grade, even if they are 50 years old!  The society here only works because it was designed for people of that mental capacity and maturity.  Talk about lack of quality in products.  No wonder GM has moved everything out of here! 
I have never seen so many small businesses that operate in the shady zone of ethics.  Nepotism is alive and flourishing here.

Good points?  No smog.  Lots of trees and great hiking trails.  The arts?  Much ado about very little.  Sort of like the appalachian family that gets all excited when they get outdoor plumbing with is hand me down at best and not usable for us, but to them it is brand spanky new!  Same concept.

Sports?  If you are into hearing about every high school game and any type of sport known to mankind on the local TV, then Indy is the place for you.  They live and breath it.

All I can say in summary it that i brought my family back to Indy for a better and more wholesome life.  Very poor decision!  We are going back to Los Angeles immediately.

Oh dear me and GOD help us - how will we ever do without the one and only truly enlightened individual ever to grace this state? Though I agree with a couple of your points (such as the addiction to piss ant sports and our current retarded and corrupt property tax situation) you certainly DO NOT speak for everyone and everything in regard to this state. We are basically no better or worse than many other places on the planet. If you don't believe that you haven't lived very long, traveled much or are skipping the facts in lieu of something that sounds good.
