Greensburg

Located halfway between Indianapolis and Cincinnati, Greensburg offers small-town charm and Hoosier Hospitality.

Arts and culture thrive in the unique ARTisTREE District, a designated cultural destination home to galleries, community theaters, art programs, international cuisine, and more.

Enjoy the outdoors with a round of golf at one of Greensburg’s five courses, or go picnicking and paddle boating at Decatur County Park. Spend a day browsing shops and boutiques like Magnolia Mercantile and Picker’s Paradise, then dig into some comfort food at local favorite, Koch’s Carry Out. Greensburg celebrates its community with unique and family-friendly annual events, such as the Tree City Fall Festival, the Tenderloin Throwdown, and the Holiday Walk. During the summer months, the weekly Farmers Market offers an abundance of homegrown and locally-made goods. Greensburg is conveniently located along Interstate 74, and only an hour’s drive from both the Indianapolis International Airport and the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport.

"Seat at the Table" to Biggest Annual Community Events 

Semi-Monthly Invites to Dinner Parties with Neighbors

“We’re the perfect place for somebody to raise a family, and I cannot begin to imagine moving away and being in a place where you don’t have that network of people that, in a pinch, you’ve got somebody to rely on. I’ve lived here my whole life, and I’m excited to share with the people who want what we have, because what we have is special.”

Tami Wenning

Grandparent on Demand

"You can achieve the quality of life, have the great school system and the cost of living of a small community while still not losing those big-city assets just down the street. Our community is full of great people that will help an individual who moves here, or their family, flourish and grow and be a part of the community."

Joshua Marsh

Mayor of Greensburg

“Greensburg is obviously a small town, but the high school is a hub of our community. If you come to a Friday night basketball game, you’re probably going to see most of the people in town. It’s an exciting atmosphere when you walk in, and it means something to our community. It’s a togetherness that everyone feels.”

Stacy Meyer

Greensburg High School Boys Basketball Coach

“Everyone is good about supporting small businesses. Everything is smaller here, which is just better. Everyone is really friendly and helpful. If you need something, you can ask, and people are willing to help you.”

Tina Sherman

Owner of Little Frogs & Fairies

“I think that art is a really important way for our community to grow and develop and attract people who might want to come live here. We’ve partnered with organizations and artists to do a series of murals. To me, they’re awesome, they’re gorgeous, but they’re an investment in our community, as well.”

Philip Deiwert

Executive Director of the Decatur County Visitors Commission

“I felt like I grew up in a place where you kind of had to keep up with the Joneses a little bit more. But in Greensburg, what you see is what you get. There’s a lot of good people, and it’s a very down-to-earth community. It’s been a really good place to have some roots.”

Erica Gunn

Director of Marketing at Visit Greensburg

“It’s unique to have a co-working space in a rural community. There’s no facility like it in the area, and we also capture some transient traffic from Indianapolis and Cincinnati. When you come into a small community, you get to know people very quickly and get involved however you want to be.”

Steve Freeman

Owner of the Studebaker Studio

“The potential is here. We know what’s in the bigger cities, but we live here by choice. Greensburg has a great cost of living and the opportunity for surrounding support that only a small town can give you. It’s got that cheer section that you won’t always get in a larger community.”

Bryan Robbins

Executive Director of the Economic Development Commission of Greensburg
