Though somewhat rural, major roadways make Adams Township a well-connected community. “This is why I love Fort Wayne,” says Angela Zimmerman, a local Realtor with Wyatt Group Realty who has four years of experience in the area. “We are big enough to have a sports team and great restaurants, and you can still drive across the city in 20 minutes or less.” U.S. Route 27 and state Road 930 connect residents to downtown. Interstate 469 is also easily accessible, and Fort Wayne International Airport is an 11-mile trip away. However, many locals fly out of larger surrounding cities. “A lot of us will drive to Indianapolis or Detroit because the flights tend to be cheaper and there are more options,” Zimmerman says.
