City - Bloomington

Located in south-central Indiana, Bloomington combines college-town energy with small-town appeal. As home to Indiana University's main campus with its 45,000 students, the city offers rich cultural and educational opportunities. The downtown area features both contemporary and historic buildings, anchored by the limestone Sample Gates that welcome visitors to IU's campus. Housing options include apartments near campus and residential neighborhoods throughout the city. Currently, renters can expect to pay around $1,116 for a one-bedroom apartment, with rental rates showing a modest annual increase of about 3.3%.

Bloomington's dedication to preserving green spaces earned its Tree City USA designation in 1984. The B-Line Trail connects downtown destinations, while Griffy Lake Nature Preserve and Lake Monroe provide hiking trails, boating, and fishing. Cultural attractions include performances at the restored 1922 Buskirk-Chumley Theater and exhibits at the Eskenazi Museum of Art.
