Halfway between Chicago and Indianapolis, with two exits off I-65, Rensselaer is the seat of Jasper County and home to 6,000 people. Clean, safe, friendly, and productive, the community has antiques, specialty gifts, an art gallery, one of the best donut bakeries around, 1,000 students at Saint Joseph's College, and a calendar filled with festivals and special events. The historic Jasper County Courthouse remains an anchor for the downtown, and now a Virtual Tour is available online.
