Yea not many from what I recall while living there. But people there also don’t really care |
Hoosier native here. I didn’t know any Jews until I went to college on the east coast . I think there might be one synagogue in all of Indianapolis. My public high school had a very active Fellowship of Christian Athletes chapter. And regularly advertised “Meet At the Flagpole” Christian morning prayer events. And we had assembly speakers who openly spoke about how Jesus saved them… |

When you have kids it’s time to grow up. It doesn’t matter how many bars there are. |
My high school was 1 mile from my house and I never had a car. |
Wow amazing. Why doesn’t everyone just do this |
Because they’re too scared of minorities to live within cities or dense suburbs. |
If the requirement is being Christian to have an environment like this and awesome school sign me up. |
To clarify, I was the person who asked about Jewish people feeling comfortable there, not this PP. I think it’s probably not the most comfortable place for a religious minority. Thanks for sharing what you recall experiencing there tho! |
There are several synagogues in Indianapolis, a JCC and the Goldman Union camp. Indiana U has Hillel and a Jewish fraternity, Purdue has Hillel. There are small Jewish communities in several Indiana towns, typically served by Hebrew Union College in Cincinnati, or larger Jewish communities in Louisville or Chicago. |
You are the Jewish PP? |
Nobody knows whose Jewish and who isn’t. |
| Carmel has better bike infrastructure than DC. I'm not kidding. their monon trail makes the MBT and W&OD look like garbage |
You do realize that the population of Carmel is 105,000 and the population of Fairfax is about 1.1 million, right? Parts of Fairfax are not suburban . . . they are urban. If we chose an area of 105,000 people within Fairfax and we chose it from the suburban part, it will probably be comparable to Carmel on those statistics. |
| Its also an incredibly racist area |
