What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Carmel

I like that it seems like a small community. Everyone on our street is about the same age and at same point in their life.

It's very clean, crime is low, everything is within walking distance especially the farmers market. There is a variety of restaurants and bars available within walking distance.

My neighborhood is in front of the city trail, and close to a cementary. Favorite local businesses are restaurants such as DQ. I like going to eat and to the gym.

Raise kids restaurants nearby it is close to my fitness center it is a very quiet place for people to Live, lots of kids and retired people. Rarely have a nay noise. The repair team did I a great work. Swimming pool and remodel fitness center. The grass being care well and the side walks. Car usually drive very slow and usually let the pedestrians go first.

My neighborhood is simple and minimalist. I like the bar and farmer market here. The arcade store is fun.

It's very quiet most of the year. The yards are all well maintained. The neighbors are all very friendly

All About

Living in Carmel, IN

When you think of renting an apartment in Carmel, Indiana, you might not think that this city with a population of 64,400 people in 2009 would offer much in the way of arts and entertainment, but it does. We'll cover just a few of the many ways Carmel residents have fun and celebrate the arts in their (and possibly soon to be your) hometown.

If you are an artist or an art enthusiast, consider apartments near the Arts and Design District in Old Town Carmel. You'll find art galleries, interior design shops, specialty stores, unique restaurants and more in this art lovers' community. The popular Carmel International Arts Festival showcasing more than 150 artists is held in the Arts and Design District, as well as other events, such as Rock the District, Art of Wine, Artomobilia, Holiday in the Arts District, Jazz on the Monon and more. You can also attend an evening art gallery walk in the neighborhood at various times throughout the year.

The Arts and Design District isn't the only part of town that hosts exciting events near Carmel apartments. On the Fourth of July, head to the Carmel Civic Center for Carmelfest, which features food, games, music and of course, fireworks. The Summer Family Concert Series at the Gazebo in Carmel Fountain Square presents a diverse line up of musicians performing rhythm and blues, rock and roll, jazz, pop, bluegrass, country, 50's doo wop and other types of music.

Kids residing in Carmel apartments can also participate directly in the arts through the Children's Art Gallery. Each month, children from a different Carmel school display their artwork here.
