Characteristics

Transportation

Driving is very often the best method to get around in this postal code. The majority of houses for sale are a rather short drive from the nearest highway, such as I-65, and it is very convenient to park. It is challenging for pedestrians to navigate this area as very few day-to-day errands can be run without a vehicle. Getting around by bicycle is also difficult in this postal code because there are a fair number of slopes, and the cycling network is not very extensive.

Services

Home buyers in Zip Code 47172 generally have to turn to a vehicle to travel to the nearest grocery store. Residents can enjoy over 50 restaurants and cafes as well. As far as education is concerned, high schools and primary schools are not numerous in this postal code, and therefore tend to require a very long trip to get to. In addition to public schools, there are private elementary and secondary schools.

Character

The character of Zip Code 47172 is exemplified by its slower-paced atmosphere. Zip Code 47172 is quiet overall, as there are low levels of noise from traffic - although there are still several louder sections, especially around I-65, one of the railway lines or the airport (Clark Rgnl). It is rather challenging to get to public green spaces from many locations within the postal code since they are spread out sporadically. Despite that, there are around 20 parks close by for residents to visit.
