What it’s like

The place. Lynn is a very small town in Randolph County, Indiana, where people tend to know one another and daily life moves at a quiet pace. Few adults hold a four-year degree, and the share of people living below the poverty line is above what is typical across the country. Winters are cold, with January the coldest month and freezing nights common, while summers are warm, with July the warmest month. Rain and melted snow add up to a fair amount over the year.

Work. Residents of Lynn work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, shops and restaurants and hotels also providing many jobs. Very few people work from home, so most travel to a workplace. Across Randolph County, some of the largest employers are Ardagh Glass Inc Winchester, which makes glass packaging containers, along with the Union School district and Randolph Central School. Unemployment in the county has eased a little over the past year, though the number of jobs has slipped slightly.

Things to do. Winchester Speedway, a race track, is a short drive away, as is the Levi Coffin House, a museum. For a longer outing, Eldora Speedway is another race track, and Minnetrista is a botanical garden, both a longer drive away. The Mississinewa River, also a longer drive, offers a place to be near the water.
