    Bloomington, IN in the news

    Living in Bloomington, IN

    Bloomington is a small town in central Indiana that is known for high-quality education as well as beautiful natural surroundings. Bloomington is home to the Indiana University’s main campus, which attracts thousands of students from all over the country each year. Many Bloomington renters are professors or other university staff members. The campus is very walkable and is known for its historic architecture — many buildings here are constructed with local limestone. This town is also known for its beautiful scenery. It is a designated Tree City that experiences all four seasons. Summers are hot and humid while winters can be very cold, but the fall and spring seasons are mild and are very colorful. Although Bloomington is a small town, it is a very tight-knit community with plenty of fun things to do and local events to enjoy.

    Renting in Bloomington, IN

    Because Bloomington is a college town, many rental properties cater to IU students. Rental prices in Bloomington are very affordable when compared to larger Midwestern cities, so many students opt to live in off-campus apartments rather than in dorms. The rental properties here are a mix of historic single-family homes and newer apartment communities. Many single-family homes have been converted into rentals for students, which means that landlords will rent out each bedroom individually rather than renting out the entire property at once. However, there are still plenty of family-friendly rental houses as well. The town is very walkable and bikeable, and it’s easy to find a conveniently located apartment close to the IU campus and the downtown area.
