Terre Haute is a nice city that has the potential to be a Great City! We need to get more grant money to fix up our neighborhoods, fix our streets they are horrible, curb appeal and sidewalks need fixed badly. Positives we have a caring community, Law enforcement works good with members of the community. We are developing out east on the 46 corridor. The developers are ignoring the Haute city mall area. We need to get more and better jobs in the Terre Haute area like high tech jobs , high manufacturing jobs. The business people will say that we cant get employees! The reason for that is because they pay low wages you put a good livable wage out there you will have people move here. We need to cater to the job market that are 4 university's cater too. I see far more positives than negative things for Terre Haute. We have a pretty good park system in Vigo county! We need to make a new swimming pool/ splash park maybe a lazy river at Deming park. I would rate us at 7.5 out of 10!
Terre Haute is a three-star city but I'm giving it four stars because I grew up here and I love it for that reason. TH is a decent place to live. Most can agree it's not the worst place to live, but everyone agrees it's definitely not the best. The city is half farm-town and half rust belt. I have reluctantly decided to move elsewhere.
The near north side looks Detroit-ish but transitions to hillbilly hell the further north you go. Weird.
East side is the best, best suburbs in town with beautiful older neighborhoods near downtown.
South side is also the best, but it's stale.
There is no west side.
Locals love the city, hate the people. Transplants hate the city, love the people.
Perfect for wealthy families, palatable for boring younger professionals.
Perfect for the uncouth, tolerable for the bourgeois.
Surprisingly scenic countryside with surprisingly ample but unfortunately non-public outdoor opportunities.
TH produces a lot of really awesome people, none of them stay.
