Linton, IN Homes for Rent

Linton is a rural city with quiet residential streets and a small-town atmosphere, amid the farmlands and forests of Greene County. Around 40 miles west of Bloomington, Linton began as a coal mining community in the early 19th century drawing in workers from throughout southwest Indiana. Today, agriculture, manufacturing and healthcare are the major industries in the area. “Linton is a small city with all the amenities you need while maintaining a rural, neighborly atmosphere,” says Kegan Inman, a local Realtor with Hunley Real Estate Inc. who was born and raised in the area. “We’re in a central location for people commuting to Terre Haute, Bloomington or the Crane Naval Base for work. Linton is also a golf-cart community, so you’re allowed to ride golf carts on the road anywhere within city limits.” Many of the area’s bungalows, ranch-style homes and farmhouses date back to the early 1900s, with some late 20th-century and 2000s homes sprinkled throughout. Mature trees dot the area’s quarter and half-acre lots, and many houses have fenced-in back yards and gravel driveways. Homes in need of renovation range from $40,000 to $95,000, while move-in-ready homes can go for $100,000 to
