Irvington is a historic neighborhood located about four miles away from Downtown Indianapolis. The neighborhood was once home to Butler University and has a district listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The neighborhood is known for its historically significant houses like the Benton House, along with beautiful Victorian and Edwardian single-family houses. Irvington also has duplexes, bungalow houses, brick ranches, and studio apartments in restored buildings available for rent. The historic Irving Theater continues to provide live entertainment with its comedy shows and open mic nights.
Irvington embodies the feel of a small town with its close-knit community and charming commercial district. The neighborhood has several civic groups including the Irvington Community Council, which hosts special events like the annual Irvington Halloween Festival. Although there are establishments across the neighborhood, Washington Street is nicknamed Downtown Irvington because the thoroughfare has local eateries, a brewery, and quirky specialty shops like Irvington Vinyl and Books.

I love the stores and eateries in the neighborhood. Growth and development are very prevalent. Great options of schools from public to charter.

Lived here 47 years, moved from Broadripple, Irvington doesn't have Br's hard edge. Great place to raise a family. Small town feel, 5 miles from City center. Neat wildlife and birds. Opossums,raccoons,rabbits, and maybe a coyote. Lots of owls and a red tailed hawk or two. Nice neighbors.

I love the feeling that I get whenever I walk through this neighbourhood! The small businesses are very interesting and sell anything from guitars to Vietnamese food.
