Definition

For coverage purposes, metro Indianapolis is Indianapolis, IN together with every incorporated community within 70 miles that is closer to Indianapolis than to any other metro anchor — 12 communities and about 769,787 people beyond the core city. Communities are assigned to their nearest anchor, so the boundaries follow travel distance rather than county lines.

Geography

The anchor sits at 39.7684°, -86.1581°. Coverage extends in 6 compass directions from it, reaching 70 miles at its furthest. The largest surrounding community is Carmel, IN — 85,927 people, 14.7 miles north.

Climate

Between October and April the Indianapolis area averages an overnight low of 34.5°F and reaches -5.7°F at its coldest, with 158 days below 45°F — about 5.2 months. A cat’s thermoneutral zone starts around 86°F against a typical indoor 64–72°F, so those are the months an indoor cat here is actively hunting for a heat source.
