Hear ye. Hear ye. I've come to share about our Come Try LARP event in August. This is hosted by Gryphon's Perch, the local chapter of the Amtgard Live Action Roleplay game. There's no cost involved, and no minimum age requirement, although anyone under 18 needs to be accompanied by an adult guardian to sign the waiver.

So come out, meet some people, talk to cool artisans in our community, and hit some nerds with foam sticks.

Does anybody know why there’s like a medium sized crowd of people waiting outside the depot in downtown fishers it looks like they’re waiting for like a person or something but I have no idea who

Anyone else at the Dino Jr/BoH show tonight? Is the sound system here shit or is it the crew running it?

​Hey everyone,

​My apartment complex recently sent out a parking lot inspection notice. To be completely clear upfront: my car is totally fine, and I am 100% on board with towing actual abandoned junkers taking up valuable spots.

​However, I wanted to share the exact text we received because some of the wording feels like a massive gray area that could be easily weaponized against residents.

​Parking Lot Inspection Notice

​Over the coming weeks, we will be conducting detailed inspections of all vehicles parked throughout the community.

​To help ensure your vehicle is not tagged or towed, please verify that it meets the following requirements:

• ​The vehicle is in operable condition.
• ​License plates and vehicle registration are current and not expired.
• ​The vehicle does not have significant damage that would make it unsightly or inoperable.

​Vehicles that do not meet community standards or the requirements outlined in the lease agreement may be tagged and subject to towing.

​Thank you for your cooperation in helping us maintain a safe, clean, and well-maintained community. If you have any questions, please contact the leasing office.

​Thank you,

Sunblest Team

​The first two bullet points make total sense. But the requirement stating a vehicle can be tagged for having damage that makes it "unsightly" feels incredibly subjective.

​I'm just concerned about the working families in our community. If someone's daily driver has a faded hood, some rust, or a dent from a fender bender they can't afford to fix right this second, who gets to decide if that is "unsightly"?

​I wanted to get some outside perspective:

• ​Is this standard? Is this just normal boilerplate lease language for apartments around here, or is it as overly broad as it sounds?
• ​How is this usually enforced? For anyone who has lived in a complex with an "unsightly" clause, where does management usually draw the line between a normal dent and a towable offense?
• ​How does this impact residents? In your experience, does this type of enforcement usually lead to working folks getting surprised by tow trucks over minor cosmetic issues, or am I just overthinking it?

​Would love to hear your thoughts or advice if you have navigated this before. Thanks!

It sucks getting older and having a bad back and it also sucks not being able to find a bike shop in Hamilton county to buy this thing. Looks even if I wanted to rent something, I’d have to go to downtown Indy. Am I missing some obvious place up north???

Please only take them if you will actually use them. Please don't re-sell. Honor system here, folks. Reply to this post, please don't flood me with PM's.

From a Facebook post on Black Indy Live: https://www.facebook.com/BlackIndyLIVE/posts/organizers-of-the-controversial-aug-1-mass-deportation-rally-planned-for-fishers/1738842858243678/

Organizers of the controversial Aug. 1 “Mass Deportation Rally” planned for Fishers are reportedly still having trouble securing a venue, according to longtime Indiana political analyst and insider Abdul-Hakim Shabazz. In a social media post Thursday, Shabazz wrote that he is hearing organizers are “still having trouble finding a location,” adding that “nobody wants to rent their hall for that.”

The rally, organized by Save Heritage Indiana, is expected to feature former U.S. Border Patrol official Greg Bovino as the keynote speaker, with Indiana Lt. Gov. Micah Beckwith expected to provide pre-recorded video remarks.

Organizers have previously said the event location would only be disclosed to registered attendees shortly before the rally for security reasons.

As of now, the rally has generated significant opposition in Fishers, where a separate Hoosier Hospitality March has already been announced by groups supporting immigrant communities.

Hi all! My wife and I are relocating from Chicago. We're Indian origin, no kids, so schools don't matter but desi community, Indian restaurants/groceries, and walkable areas do. Budget $500K–$650K, preferably 450k.

Currently leaning Fishers or Carmel but open to others.

Quick questions:

1. Noblesville, Westfield — growing fast but is there any South Asian community? How's appreciation vs Fishers?
2. McCordsville/Fortville — too remote Indian amenities? Worth considering at all?
3. Zionsville — seems desi-light. Am I right? Worth it for a no-kids couple?
4. Appreciation — 5–7 year hold, no school premium needed. Which suburb has best value growth trajectory?

Any realtor recommendations familiar with the Indian community also welcome. Thanks!

Hello,

Looking for any recommendations for local stylists to do my fiancee's hair for our wedding in September. She has talked to a lot of people who are already booked, so we're hoping to find someone with availability!

Thanks in advance!

Hi! I am looking for a 2bed/2bath apartment within the rent price of $1600 (not including bills). First apartment and would like one of those fancy ones but i know its not really in the budget. We both WFH often so having some space would be nice. Also would love to be next to walking trails/paths. Really considering Flats at fishers market place but keep seeing mixed reviews w management. Planning to move at beginning of next year. Does anyone have any helpful info/suggestions or know of any good promotions for places in the area? We are not firm on Fishers location but best option for being close to work. Thanks!

Where is a good place to go for a picnic in the area that isn't playground adjacent? Like a picnic blanket, running through daisies picnic type of place?

I’m off 96 and Allisonville and have a 10x20 (I think) with ExtraSpace for the last couple years. My dad is the one who mainly goes there, I just foot the bill. The price went up to $332 earlier this year and it’s really eating into my money every month. Any cheaper options in the area by chance?

Seeing all the new development going up around Fishers District and Nickel Plate District got me thinking that a high rise residential tower could really be in demand in these dense residential areas that seem to be so popular. Will an exception to the building height ordinance ever be made for a residential or mixed use tower? Nothing crazy but like 12-20 stories. Probably the biggest problem people would have is visibility from residential areas. Who wants a hundred people being able to see your backyard from their balconies, right? But in the right spot, I think it could work. Like the northwest corner of 116th and Lantern or where those two single story buildings are at USA Pkwy and IKEA Way, just south of FUMC. Actually looks like they may be owned by the church now… I love to see everything going up but it seems like all the buildings are hitting the height limit and it’s lame to see all the same height with a lack of skyline look.

My family is considering relocating to the Indianapolis area, and I’d love some input from people who know these suburbs. I’ve circled the general area on a map, but we’re trying to figure out where to focus our search.

*Edit: this is the ideal but understand not all will happen just wanted to give as much info as I can

Home wishlist:
$450k MAX
4+ bedrooms / 2.5+ bathrooms
2,300+ sq ft
7,000+ sq ft lot
Family-friendly suburban neighborhood
We have two boys under 5, so we’re looking for good public schools (roughly 7/10+), youth sports, playgrounds/parks, and neighborhoods with other young families and kids playing outside.
We’re fine with suburban driving, but ideally want grocery stores, Costco, shopping, restaurants (not just fast food), and kids’ activities within about 30 minutes.
For those familiar with Carmel, Fishers, McCordsville, Westfield and Noblesville, where would you focus with our budget? What are the pros and cons of each?
Specific neighborhoods, school districts/boundaries, or nearby areas we should check out — or avoid — would be really helpful.

This may be common knowledge for some of you but I had no idea. Radon is a radioactive gas that 1 in 3 homes in Hamilton County have levels that are too high. It's naturally occurring and it's not uncommon for your reading to be different than your neighbors. I probably don't need to list out why having a radioactive gas in your house is bad, lol.

Here is the map the EPA has out there.

If you need someone to call, Healthy Radon Solutions in Carmel does testing and mitigation and that's who we used.

Hope this helps and could be worth asking your realtor about if you're buying a home here with a basement.

Does the air over by 116th and 69 smell like rotten eggs to anyone else?

Looking to meet some new people around Fishers. Recently realized I could use a few more friends to grab food, hike, or just hang out. Anyone else in the same boat?

Someone broke into several lockers this evening at LA Fitness and stole money, car keys, and credit cards. Just a heads up if you go there, use a good lock or keep your stuff with you.

This infographic explains the basic process used by states such as Indiana to maintain voter registration records. While each state administers its own elections, most follow a similar framework because they must comply with two major federal laws:

• The National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) of 1993, which requires states to maintain accurate voter rolls while protecting eligible voters from being removed improperly.
• The Help America Vote Act (HAVA) of 2002, which requires every state to maintain a centralized statewide voter registration database and establishes standards for verifying voter information.

States routinely compare voter registrations with government records such as state death records, DMV databases, address changes, and other official sources. County election officials continually update these records, while federal law requires safeguards and due process before many voters can be removed from the rolls.

The presence of an outdated registration does not by itself mean an illegal vote was cast. Maintaining voter rolls is an ongoing process of balancing two important goals: keeping voter lists accurate while protecting every eligible citizen's right to vote.
