In the heart of Indiana’s Grant County, five small communities — Fowlerton, Sims, Landess, Jalapa, and Point Isabel — quietly embody the promise of rural America: affordable living, strategic accessibility, and strong community spirit. Though collectively home to fewer than 1,000 people, each town offers unique advantages for business, residents, and visitors alike. From rail-served freight access to riverfront recreation near the Mississinewa River, these towns exemplify how small size and quiet charm can combine with growth potential and quality of life.
