What it’s like
The place. Corunna is a very small town in DeKalb County, in the northeast corner of Indiana, where neighbors are likely to know one another by sight. Homes here carry a typical value well above what many older homeowners elsewhere might expect for a place this size, and only a small share of residents live below the poverty line. Winters are cold, with January highs near freezing, summers turn warm, and the year brings a good deal of snow along with steady rain.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in the building trades. Across DeKalb County, the largest workplaces include Steel Dynamics' flat roll steel operation in Butler, Fortune Brands Innovation, which makes doors, and Nucor Building Systems, which makes prefabricated metal buildings. Unemployment across the county is close to where it stood a year ago, though the county has fewer jobs than it did the year before.
Things to do. The Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum is a short drive away and is among the best-known stops nearby. A longer drive brings you to Chain O'Lakes State Park, a protected area with lakes and woods, and to the St. Joseph River, a river for a quiet afternoon by the water. Families with children can also make a longer drive to the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Corunna’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively low. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on DeKalb County and the Auburn, IN metro.
