I was born here in Griffith, Indiana and have lived here for all 18 years of my life. It is a small suburb in Northwest Indiana and is very closely tied to Chicago. Since the population isn’t very bug, everyone knows everyone in our small little town. The schools are heart of the town and where everyone is involved. Whether its Friday night football games, dance banquets, or trivia nights a lot of residents come out to have fun and bond with each other. During the summer, there is a market at Central Park, which brings a lot of people together not only from Griffith but many other bordering towns. The teachers, policemen, and firefighters make sure our town is very safe for everyone and they have done a great job. Overall Griffith has many opportunities for people and community bonding events
Friendly town, school systems have been going downhill. But downtown Broad always has something going on and a new store coming. Great for local business!
I think that Griffith Indiana is a wonderful place. I have loved growing up in such a nice, warm and loving community. Due the revitalization project, there is always something new and exciting going on. I really love Griffith!
