Castleton
Castleton is the northeast's retail gravity well: Castleton Square as the original anchor, then the rings of strip centers, restaurants, and apartment complexes that grew around it off I-69 and 82nd Street. People move here for the commute and the convenience, not the charm. Dates skew practical, the kind that start at The Cheesecake Factory or a movie at the mall and end in someone's apartment off Allisonville. There is no real downtown, no walkable core, just parking lots and turn lanes. If you want efficient and unfussy, Castleton delivers. If you want atmosphere, keep driving north toward Broad Ripple.
