If you’re from Indiana, you may know Henry County as the place “Where Basketball Lives,” but during our multiple visits to the area our team learned that there is so much more to Henry County than Hoosiers and hardwoods.

Henry County is a place where locals grow their own produce and share it with their neighbors. A community where libraries provide a place to work and a gathering spot for locals. A home with great schools offering innovative programming (Shenandoah High School has an esports team!).

Here are a few of the other things we learned about Henry County:

They LOVE sports (not just basketball, although they love that, too), which is why a 

 are part of the incentive package. You’ll always find the community out supporting whatever sport is in season. The Mayor of New Castle goes to every home football game and lights off fireworks when the team scores a touchdown. C’mon. It doesn’t get much better than that!

The apple cider donuts at Jacob’s Family Orchard are so good, we stopped by TWICE.

There’s plenty of space and opportunity to play. There are skate parks, disc golf courses, splash pads, fishing, golfing, and horseback riding. Perhaps “play” means a little something different to you. In that case, there are state parks, art associations, concerts, festivals, fairs, wineries, breweries, and more.

Henry County is a community where you can work and play alongside locals who care about you. And who knows? They might welcome you with a fireworks display.

We pride ourselves in our deep agricultural history, love for our friends and neighbors, and the strength of our local business and industry.

We were lucky enough to spend a couple days in Wabash County and we saw firsthand how much this community wraps its arms around its residents. Chatting with Addie at The Montessori School at WPC, we learned that the county is investing in early childhood education. Meeting up with young professionals at Modoc’s, a local coffee shop that pays homage to an elephant that escaped the circus, we learned that leadership development is top of mind (and a program benefit!).

We also learned that they invest in their local parks, like Friendship Hill, one of the largest inclusive playgrounds in the Midwest. They also are creating more opportunities to get outside, like the Wabash River Trail that runs from Wabash to Lagro.

And as if this wasn’t enough, they’re even investing money in early scholarship funds for kids. As part of the Early Award Scholarship Program, every student in 4th-8th grade who attends school in Wabash County has the opportunity to earn up to $1,000 for doing their homework in math, reading and language arts, and for completing college prep activities.

Driving around the county, you can feel that these communities are listening to their residents and creating spaces for learning, recreation, arts and entertainment, and family and friends. Best of all? They’re welcoming you to be a part of it!

*The Early Award Scholarships program affords the opportunity for Wabash County public school students in grades 4 through 8 to earn up to $1,000 just for doing their homework in math, reading and language arts, and completing college prep activities. The $250 investment as part of this program is a bonus for a remote worker relocating to Wabash County.

If you’re a remote worker looking for a family-friendly and generous community- you have got to check out Wabash County, Indiana. Wabash County ranks 2nd out of 92 counties in Indiana for philanthropic giving. There is a great scholarship program for PK-3rd grade students as well as opportunities for mentorship, college visits, and more through Promise Indiana.

Lake time could mean a lot of things, but we think it means taking time to do things you enjoy. Here’s are a couple ways that you can experience lake time in White County:

 During our time in White County, Rick and Debbie gave us a tour of some of their favorite spots: Rotary Centennial Park, where Rick leads locals on owl hikes, or the deck behind their home where they can watch bird migrations over the lake.

Rick and Debbie also showed us around downtown Monticello, where there are some incredible homes (one of them recently renovated and for sale!).

Grab a drink on Indiana’s largest boat, the Madam Carroll! 

While you’re there you should chat with Chris Peters. He moved back to White County after living on the east coast so that he could invest in and help grow his community. He’s doing great things with the Madam Carroll: it’s now open year-round and he hosts a ton of events (you might find the Easter bunny skiing behind the boat in the spring).

If you move to White County, you’ll find a community that combines lakeside living with forward thinking investments. You’ll find folks who have relocated to live on the lake and folks who have returned to be a part of White County’s future. White County is ready for you to be on lake time, full time.

It's for real, and MakeMyMove helps you find the right community for you, connect with locals there, and get support to make your move a piece of cake.

White County, Indiana is a beautiful area located in the northern part of Indiana. The county is known for its many lakes and waterways, making it a popular destination for water activities such as boating, swimming, and fishing.
