Avon is one of the fastest growing communities in Indiana. The growth can be
attributed to a number of factors including its outstanding educational system of
four-star schools and public library, business-friendly location and climate, a
wealth of retail and shopping alternatives and first-class parks and recreational
facilities and programs. There are over 30 parks and 5 golf courses located within
7 miles of the center of Town.
Incorporated in 1995, Avon is a friendly community that developed around the
intersection of a major U.S. highway (US 36) and a major Indiana roadway (SR
267, now known as Avon Avenue).
Avon was the first community in Hendricks County designated as a Tree City USA
and was the first community in Hendricks County to enact an ordinance to
create smoke free workplaces. |
