Most Expensive Place to Live in Indiana

While there are many places scattered across the state that are home to large estates, only one houses the wealthiest homeowners in Indiana. HGTV recently listed the most expensive neighborhoods in the U.S. with plenty of luxurious real estate to add to your 'favorite' list on Zillow. Real estate data from CashNetUSA and Zillow determined the most upscale town, suburb, or community in every state. As it turns out, Indiana's is certainly a place that I'd love to live in...if I had the money.

According to HGTV, the most expensive place to live in Indiana is Syracuse. Here's what they said:

Syracuse is a small upscale town in Kosciusko County, Indiana, with a population of just 3,000 residents. Set on the shores of Syracuse Lake, Syracuse is also a stone’s throw from Lake Wawasee, the largest natural lake in Indiana, which is known for its beautiful lakefront homes. The lakes provide plentiful opportunities for outdoor recreation, like swimming, fishing and sailing. The Syracuse-Wawasee Trails are popular among area hikers and cyclists. The average home price is $1,242,916 for a home right on the lake. However, some larger lakeside homes can easily fetch upwards of $3 or $4 million.

I'm not going to lie, with all of the amazing views, lakes, and activities, this is a place that I'd love to call home. I just have to be able to afford some lakefront property. You can check out the full list of the most expensive places to live in each state by clicking here.
