Franklin
What's it like to live in Franklin?
Franklin is a total small-town gem with just the right amount of buzz. You’ve got a beautifully restored downtown square (seriously—it’s like something out of a Hallmark movie), a growing arts and foodie scene, and a close-knit community that really shows up for parades, festivals, and Friday night lights. It’s peaceful, affordable, and full of character—just 25 minutes south of Indy, but a world away from the chaos.
