Built on the pillars of pride and progress the Greenwood Area has
made great strides in becoming a community for all. Just 12 miles
south of downtown Indianapolis the Greenwood Area is a great
location for commerce, residence, and recreation. Greenwood has 14
municipal parks with playgrounds, ball diamonds, and picnic areas
covering a total of 200 acres. Greenwood also boasts a swimming
pool, community center, numerous tennis courts, golf courses and
Little League programs. The city also has entertainment venues, fine
restaurants, and retail for all ages. Greenwood has two libraries
serving the area, a community band, and an art institute.
Greenwood
is a key player in an economic power corridor which stretches
throughout the Central Indiana region. It has a well-deserved
reputation as one of the state's most diversified business
communities. Flexibility and efficient planning meet changing market
demands. The City initiates several projects to redefine City
infrastructures, providing an attractive atmosphere for commerce.
With this growth also come great health care, education, and a sense
of pride.
Area residents know they have top quality medical
care when needed thanks to the presence of excellent facilities.
Within a five-mile radius residents and visitors have access to
Community Hospital South and St. Francis Hospital & Health Center.
These two institutions have comprehensive care with over 300 beds.
Other world-renowned hospitals in Indianapolis are a short drive
away including Riley Hospital for Children, Methodist, and the
Indiana University Medical Center. The area also encompasses great
assisted living care communities and health specialty offices.
Educational excellence is the primary objective
at the Greenwood area schools. The Greenwood, Center Grove, and
Clark-Pleasant School Corporations offer one of the most
comprehensive K-12 public school programs available in Indiana. With
enrollment figures increasing annually, the districts employ
highly-qualified teaching staffs to meet the demand. Excellent
higher education opportunities are also in the area. Indiana Tech
and ITT Technical Institute both have local learning centers in
Greenwood. Traditional four-year institutions include Franklin
College, University of Indianapolis and Indiana University-Purdue
University Indianapolis just a short drive away.
