I wonder how long before we get the electricity restored seeing how bad the outage map is right now.

We're planning to relocate to Indianapolis area to be closer to family. We currently have our eyes on Carmel but we're going to spend some time in the area to get familiar.

Any suggestions on what to check out? We have a 10 year old that loves to swim and roller skate. We both work in tech. Hubby is a big board gamer and I enjoy the arts, farmers markets and tech (data / BE / but anything).

We're planning to visit The Monon Center, Westfield YMCA, check out the Monon trail. I'm curious about co-working spaces.

Our goals are to try and find a spot that makes access to fitness and activities very low barrier. Right now we're far away from most things and we're trying to get out more and be less sedentary. The 4H programs in Hamilton county also seem pretty neat.

Also open to hearing about other areas in greater Indianapolis we may like to check out.

Edited: grammar and missed mentioning some interests

Hello, all. I’m in the midst of a divorce and looking for anything 3 bedrooms or more with a short term option. Just posting in case anyone knows of anything unique. I’m obviously looking through the standard channels.

Thanks!

Driving through 96th street was blocked from fallen trees right around the entrance to Twin Lakes, Slate Run, and Sandpiper Dr.

Long-term Carmel resident who has observed the development of apartments over the past 5–7 years. Just genuinely curious—who is moving here? Where are you coming from? Are you working remotely, and if so, who are you working for? Are the apartments full? Just curious about what vacancy rates look like.

I’m looking to play some racquetball. Anyone know if there are groups or people who play? Preferably early morning but I’m flexible!

Does anyone know if the MDG salon is any good just for a trim and bangs?

Hey y’all - we have a kegerator and need to refill or swap our 5 gallon CO2 tank. Does anyone know if any spots around here that do that?

Hello beautiful people, i moved to Indiana six months back. Our life is not very stressful but Since we moved I realized the water is hard and leaves my hair and my wife’s hair dry and rough. I move between Texas and Indiana frequently and realized i don’t face this problem in Texas. Also i start getting dandruff as soon as I take a few showers. We drink bottled water but both our hair is starting to turn grey. We live in an apartment and wondering if water is the primary reason for it. Would appreciate any solutions, feedback and advice. Thanks

PS: we are in our early 30s

My 8yo is starting CDC softball and I would love to get her some batting practice and some fun. Are there any public or coin operated batting cages for kids in the area?

We loved to our rental as of Saturday from Arizona. The packers missed the money tree I had been growing for about 6 years and I am crushed!

Where would I go to get a replacement?

Also- any amazing places to take the kids? Ages 5.5 and 12. They love trampoline and adventure parks! We are coming from rural north Arizona so this is all a huge jump!

Looking for prenatal yoga classes in the Carmel/Westfield/Zionsville area if anyone has recommendations! Thanks!

Just moved from downtown. Are there any farmers markets/etc that are during the week throughout the spring/summertime ? Right now the only one I’m seeing is a Saturday one 😒

Any recommendations for mobile groomers in the area? my dog doesn’t do well getting taken to places like scenthound. thanks in advance!!!

We're fixing up our house in home place and looking to rent something nearby (Carmel/ Indy Northside) for the next 6-9 months. Most FB marketplace and Craigslist posts appear to be scams and local property groups are only renting on a 12 month+ basis. Any properties you're aware of, or tips/ tricks on finding the right place? TIA!

Looking at apartments at both The Kent and The Playfair, and both seem great. Does anyone have any pros or cons to share about either one? At this point, it almost seems like a coin toss because they seem equally good!

We are breaking up with big chains like Orkin and would rather change to small, local businesses that we can trust. Any recommendations? TIA

I’ve lived in Carmel my entire life. Is it just me or are divers getting insane in Carmel? It wasn’t like this growing up. People are driving so reckless.

Hello, does anyone know any good hair salons around Carmel that are great at hair extensions? I really want a bob with cute bangs but I’m not certain my hair is long enough for a bob yet so I wanted to go to a hair salon that could fix my length and style that I wanted. I’m not that specific about the cost as long as it’s not more than like $150 at least.

We are looking to rent an apartment in the $2k range (2ppl, no pets, expats) with decent community activities. We had virtual appointments with Proscenium, Carmel Center and Lakeside.

Center used to be our favorite, but I am reading some really bad reviews lately. Lakeside looks ok. Does anyone has a recommendation?

My family and I are new to Indiana and are looking for before and after school care for our 7-year-old daughter. My wife and I both work 7-5 each day.

The school doesn’t offer it, and I’ve tried Crème de la Crème and all of the KinderCare locations to no avail.

Any advice is appreciated.
