Beech Grove is "city within the city"
About 6 miles southeast of downtown Indianapolis, Beech Grove is a completely independent “city within the city” with a rich industrial history and a palpable sense of civic pride. Beech Grove started as a cattle-farming settlement in the 1800s before welcoming a major railroad locomotive and equipment plant in the early 20th century. Railroad companies including Amtrack remain major employers in the city today, along with Alro Steel, ADM Milling and other industry companies. Beech Grove is home to around 15,000 people who enjoy its self-contained, community centered feel.

Community has mix of homes and walkable blocks
The city features “quite a mix of homes,” says real estate agent Bob Kincaid. “There’s not a whole lot of new construction; it’s mostly existing houses.” Indeed, many of the homes here date between the 1920s and the 1970s, though there are some constructions from the ‘90s and later, too. Ranchers with stone, brick and wood facades run throughout the city, as well as traditional midcentury homes, Tudors, split-levels and bungalows. Sidewalks connect the different lots and blocks together and make the community highly walkable, especially in the center of town. Most homes here range from the $100s to the $300s, making the cost of living lower than many other Indy-adjacent areas.
Beech Grove is home to stunning Tudor-style houses that showcase timeless craftsmanship.
Shaded by mature trees, Beech Grove’s homes offer a perfect blend of comfort and curb appeal.

Beech Grove has its own district
As an independent city, Beech Grove features its own public school system. It includes two elementary schools — Central and Hornet Park — South Grove Intermediate School for fourth through sixth grade students, Beech Grove Middle and Beech Grove High. Every public school in the city features the same mascot, the Hornets, meaning kids who grow up going to Beech Grove City Schools remain part of the Hornet community the whole time. The city is also home to two private schools: Holy Name Catholic School welcomes pre-K, elementary and middle school students; and Montessori Children’s House accommodates pre-K and elementary children.
Central Elementary School in Beech Grove is a public school serving grades 2–3, offering programs like art, music, and a Gifted & Talented curriculum to support young learners.
Beech Grove Senior High School is a public school serving grades 9–12, offering a wide range of academic programs, athletics, and extracurricular activities to prepare students for college and careers.

Main Street anchors dining scene
Few cities or towns in the United States maintain a “Main Street U.S.A.” feel, and Beech Grove is one of them. Most of the city’s most popular businesses can be found right on Main Street, which is within easy walking distance from many homes. Good eats on the main drag include Rustic Root, a sophisticated tearoom with sandwiches, soups, salads and high tea. Just a few doors down is the classy Napoli Villa Italian Restaurant and Silver Linings Coffeehouse. And right around the corner is Beech Grove Bowl, a nearly 80-year-old establishment that FOX59 recently named the best bowling alley in Indianapolis.
From fresh sandwiches to warm soups and flavorful teas, Rustic Root is a local favorite in Beech Grove.
