Camped out in the growing southwest suburbs of Indianapolis
In the southwestern end of Indianapolis, new homes continue springing up in Camby, where new residential developments offer a comparatively lower cost of entry to the capital city’s outer suburbs. “Location is its biggest factor. It’s very convenient to the Indianapolis International Airport and downtown,” says Daniel O’Brien, a local Realtor with Trueblood Real Estate. “The new construction there is more affordable than in the northern suburbs. … In a sense, it’s kind of like workforce housing.” Stretched along Route 67, the community is largely surrounded by verdant woods and farm fields. Just outside the Interstate 465 beltway, Camby is about 15 miles from downtown and even closer to the city’s job-rich airport corridor that’s peppered with freight shipping centers, office parks and manufacturing hubs. While folks can quickly commute to work, the community’s relatively remote location offers the peace and quiet of the suburbs, complete with its own highway shopping center with a supermarket and a few big box retailers.
Comparatively low new home prices
Nearly every home sold in the Camby in recent years was built after 2000, so the area still feels new with contemporary traditional-style homes that include attached one- and two-car garages. Though somewhat rare, the area also includes a few older ranch-style homes that predate the new construction boom by about half a century. Comparatively, many of the new home lots are smaller and clustered closely together in their subdivisions. But residents there can enjoy strolling along wide sidewalks and watching their kids play with neighbors in the cul de sac at the end of their street. Home prices start at around $200,000 for a home spanning around 1,200 to 1,800 square feet. For homes with four or more bedrooms and a full basement, prices rise from $300,000 to $475,000.
The median price of homes in Camby, IN is $299,000, with so many to choose from.

HOA community centers and nature parks in the surrounding woods
There are few public parks in Camby, but the area makes up for it with its open fields, wooded hiking trails and golf courses. In the Heartland Crossing subdivision, the HOA manages a community swimming pool next to a park with playgrounds, sand volleyball and hard surface courts for basketball and tennis. Nearby at the intersection of Heartland Boulevard and County Line Road, Central Park features several multi-purpose fields where young kids play football, baseball and soccer. West of Camby, Sodalis Nature Park is named after the endangered bats that live within the 200-acre space where people come to hike and run along trails that wind across 3.5 miles. Anglers also frequent the park, as a floating dock juts out into a 5.5-acre fishing pond.

Camby is the right distance between the city and country. You're far enough from the big city but still in a close community. I'd like to see a a grocery store with healthier options like Whole Foods.

Used to be a very family friendly community, as it was initially advertised. Now we deal with drivers that do not follow the speed limit. Very few people follow the noise curfew.
