Local Talk

Get answers about Lafayette from local experts or tell us what you love about it.

  • Is Lafayette a good place for families?

    Based on safety and quality of education, Lafayette is not a very good place for families. With a crime index of 9 out of 100, Lafayette's crime rate is quite a bit higher than average. Still, there are some safe neighborhoods in town, including the areas on the outskirts of the city farthest from the city center. Lafayette students are primarily served by Lafayette School Corporation School District, which has been rated as better than only 5.1 percent of school districts in Indiana and 22.8 percent of school districts in the country. Tippecanoe School Corp School District, which also serves Lafayette students, has received much more favorable reviews.

  • Are there museums in Lafayette or nearby?

    Yes, Lafayette is home to a few museums. The Art Museum of Greater Lafayette, for example, has a collection of more than 870 works of American art, with a focus on Indiana artists. On campus, the Purdue University Galleries specialize in high-quality visual art exhibitions and programming to enhance the educational mission of the University. Lafayette is also home to the Imagination Station is a science, space, and technology center for children, and the Columbian Park Zoo.

  • Is Lafayette a family friendly town?

    Lafayette is not a very family-friendly town. To begin, it has a very high crime rate; in fact, Lafayette is one of the top 100 most dangerous cities in the United States, which never bodes well for families with young children. As far as education is concerned, Lafayette's schools are good relative to other districts in the state. However, since Louisiana's schools are ranked rather low when compared to other states, those same schools rank in the bottom 25 percent percentile on a national level.
