What it’s like
The place. Idaville is a very small community in White County, Indiana, home to far fewer people than most towns. Few adults here hold a four-year degree compared with the country as a whole, and the typical home is valued well below what a home costs in many parts of the country. Winters are cold and snowy, with January the coldest month, and summers turn warm in July, with rain and melted snow spread through the year.
Work. Residents work mostly in manufacturing, in schools, hospitals and social care, in shops, and in the building trades. Across White County, some of the biggest employers are Twin Lakes School, White County Government and Walmart. Joblessness across the county has stayed low, and it is a little lower than it was a year ago, though the number of jobs has barely changed.
Things to do. Indiana Beach, an amusement park, and Lake Shafer are both a short drive away. A longer drive leads to Prophetstown State Park, a protected area, and to the Tippecanoe River, which suits an outing of its own.

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 White County.
