Tyler Beasley 2nd Blog- Indianapolis

What is there to do? How big of a city is it? Is there a night life? Don’t worry I am going to give you the review of Indianapolis. Many of you probably have no idea about the city and what there is around to do. This place is my home and I can successfully say that the city of Indianapolis is not what you think it is. Indianapolis has many things going on, the Indianapolis Colts are based out of downtown and also there is the Indiana Pacers of the NBA and the Indiana Fever of the WNBA who just won the championship. There is also a minor league baseball team who is the farm team of the Pittsburgh Pirates of the MLB. In 2010 the census said that Indianapolis had a population of 830,000 people. There are many schools in this area all packed in to a small circle. Indianapolis also has the Indy 500 which is said to be the biggest sporting event in the world; the race brings a lot of money into the economy of Indianapolis.  The city is a sport driven town, you hear a lot about the Colts and Pacers but there are also colleges all around the city. The main college is downtown Indianapolis that everyone knows about is Butler university. Butler became well known just a few years ago as they went to the National championship in the NCAA March madness tournament two years in a row. One of those games being played in Indianapolis. Indianapolis hosts the final four every five years because of it being such a great place. Indianapolis also hosted the super bowl in 2012. Indianapolis was said to be one of the best host cities the super bowl has ever had. The city also has many appealing clubs and bars to provide for a good night life right downtown. There is also a very beautiful river running right through downtown called white river, it is very big and goes throughout the city. There is the Indianapolis zoo right downtown that is also a place that a lot of people tend to go to. All in all Indianapolis has lots of things to do and is a very good place to raise a family; I wouldn’t choose to live anywhere else.
