I'm going to be able to afford about a grand between rent and utilities a month. Would I be able to get something pretty nice for that amount?

i've heard it's a pretty sucky place overall redstorm, but i've never been and don't really know for sure. to me it looks like just another boring, uninspired, run of the mill mid-west city.

that sounds about right.
the term Hoosier, (any awkward, unsophisticated person, esp. a rustic), really defines the majority of people in Indiana.  the number of close-minded bigots is astronomical and all the cool people leave town as soon as they get the chance.

some of the architecture downtown is decent and theyre working on improving the overall feel of the indianapolis.  if youre into parkour, theres some fun to be had.

besides local talent, the music scene is ok. with venues like the mousetrap and the music mill playing jam bands almost every weekend, i always have something to do. 

bars are bars.  the closer to the colleges you get, the better the eye candy and if swarms of frat boys immersed in faggotry dont bother you, you might have fun.

lots of small suburbs have exploded into giant, thriving malls in the past 5-10 years, if you like to shop.

i, personally, havent seen ANY violence in the streets.  there are few shootings on the news, but usually isolated incidents.

the weed varies from booty,$20oz, to ok chronic,$50 1/8.

the psychs are soon to be plentiful

ummm, what are you into?
