Indianapolis - “Indiana City”

“I came up to Indianapolis, and from day one, I would think optimistically this was going to be great job, we’re going to win, it’s going to be a great place to live.” - Tony Dungy

Indianapolis is the only capital city located at the direct center of a state, and at the center of Indianapolis is a deep appreciation for the arts. Indianapolis’ rich arts culture helps contribute greatly to the city’s tourism rates, a key component to Indianapolis’ economy. The Indianapolis Museum of Art and the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis, the largest of its kind in the world, are both located in the downtown area. Indianapolis also plays host to numerous arts fairs and festivals, including the Broad Ripple Art Fair, Talbot Street Art Fair, Carmel Arts Festival and the Penrod Art Fair. The annual Indianapolis Jazz Festival is one of the city’s major musical attractions that has seen the likes of Jazz Legends Ray Charles, B.B. King, Aretha Franklin, and most recently Norah Jones.

Indianapolis sports venues are among some of the biggest attractions in the Midwest. The Indianapolis Motor Speedway hosts the NASCAR Indianapolis 500 on Memorial Day Weekend and the NASCAR Allstate 400 at the Brickyard, which is the highest attended NASCAR event of the season. Indianapolis is also home to the Indiana Pacers of the NBA and the Indianapolis Colts of the NFL. With surrounding colleges and universities like Indiana University and Purdue University among others nearby, collegiate athletics have a strong following in the Indianapolis area. The NCAA Hall of Champions is located in Indianapolis as well.

In addition to tourism’s contributions to Indianapolis’ economy, major corporations like Eli Lilly Pharmaceuticals, the Wells Fargo Company and Roche Diagnostics all operate out of Indianapolis. With these diverse economy lines, Forbes Magazine ranked Indianapolis as the 6th best city in the United States for jobs in 2008.
