DARLINGTON INDIANA

Welcome!      

Darlington Indiana is located just 8 miles northeast of Crawfordsville off of Highway 47.  It's within a short driving distance to Thorntown, Colfax, Lebanon and Lafayette.

According to the 2010 census, the population was 843.

We are a quiet, close knit community who accepts new residents with open arms.

During nice weather in Darlington you're bound to see someone walking their dog along the tree lined streets, mowing their yard, planting flowers, sitting on their front porch or in their back yard, having a family get together.  You're bound to smell someone cooking on a grill.  And you'll hear children laughing and playing.  You will always find neighbors visiting at the Darlington Mini Mart.  Or giving a passing wave and hello as they pick up their mail at the Post Office.

Old Fashioned Days in September always bring the community together.

"Darlington's Open Door"

To the man or woman who is seeking a home, we say, "Come to Darlington."  You will find no better place on earth to live than here, be you seeking a home where only modern conditions and conveniences prevail.  Here you will be among people who are happy, contented, hopeful, congenial, and progressive; here Christianity prevails, good schools for the education of your children, all these things Darlington offers to you, and we are ready to "meet the stranger at the gate."  We balk at no legitimate enterprise, and welcome every man, rich or poor, who comes to add his efforts to the up building of the town.  Here where the Hoosier hospitality abounds, you will be made to feel at home, and you will have a home among the "salt of the earth."
