What it’s like

The place. Grandview is a small river-country town in Spencer County, Indiana, and most of the homes here are lived in by their owners. Household incomes run below the county's, and typical home values are moderate by Zillow's estimate. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month, and summers turn properly warm by July; the year brings a good deal of rain and melted snow.

Work. Residents work mainly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, shops and transport, warehouses and utilities also employing many. Across Spencer County, some of the largest workplaces are Cleveland Cliffs, North Spencer County Schools and Spencer Industries. Jobs across the county slipped a little from the year before, and the commute to work is a fairly long one for most people.

Things to do. Blackford Creek runs in or beside town, handy for a walk by the water. Lincoln Pioneer Village, a museum, is a short drive away, and Lincoln Boyhood National Memorial, a protected area tied to the Lincoln story, is a longer drive. For a full day out, Holiday World & Splashin' Safari is an amusement park, also a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Grandview’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. 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 Spencer County.
