City of West Lafayette Details
On the banks of the scenic Wabash River in north central Indiana, West Lafayette offers the culture usually associated with a Big Ten university town combined with a reasonable, Midwest-style cost-of-living.Due to Purdue University's presence, a large percentage of our population has global ties, and this diverse, well-educated workforce has led to a local economy rich in culture and variety (and we're not just referring to all the unique restaurants!).You'll be entertained by university-related events — whether you're watching a Broadway-style show or a stadium-pounding football game. But if you're not satisfied standing on the sidelines, you're welcome to play a round of 18-holes on a championship course or participate in a period reenactment festival.You can have the best of all worlds in serene but sophisticated West Lafayette. Big-city fun is just an hour way in Indianapolis or two hours up to Chicago. But come home to the perks of small town living, alive and well through top schools, a low crime rate and little or no commute times.
