Plainfield blends small-town ease with big-city access, offering a comfortable pace of life just a short drive from Indianapolis in the heart of Hendricks County. Thoughtful planning shows up everywhere, from well-kept neighborhoods and a thriving parks system to a historic downtown connected by miles of trails. The Town’s extensive pathway network links to the Richard A. Carlucci Recreation & Aquatic Center, a community hub for fitness, classes, and leagues, and to summer-favorite Splash Island, where water slides, a lazy river, and lap pools keep all ages active. Weekend errands are easy at The Shops at Perry Crossing, an open-air destination for dining, movies, and national retailers.
Families appreciate the strong reputation of Plainfield Community School Corporation, known for rigorous academics, STEM opportunities, and standout arts and athletics. Outdoor time comes naturally at Hummel Park, with its creek-side trails, playgrounds, and concert lawn, while town events and seasonal festivals keep the calendar full. Commuters benefit from quick connections via I-70 and U.S. 40, plus proximity to Indianapolis International Airport, a major employer and travel gateway.
Whether you’re eyeing a new build near the trail system or a classic home closer to downtown, Plainfield delivers convenience, value, and a welcoming community spirit.
