Find 127,928 Homes Here

From The Indianapolis Star, Saturday, August 2, 1924:  There are 42,481 more homes in Indianapolis today than there were in 1921 according to a survey recently completed by the post office.  The report shows that three years ago there were 85,477 homes in the city, says Postmaster Robert Bryson.  Of the 127,928 Indianapolis residences now on record, 117,566 are dwelling homes and 10,353 are apartments.  While the annexation of Broad Ripple added 553 occupied residences, the section of the city showing the greatest growth of homes is northeast of Woodruff Place where there are now 11,353 occupied dwellings.  The survey shows an increase in rental property since 1921 that includes 9,716 apartments from the 637 reported three years ago.  In the downtown area of Indianapolis, many older homes have been vacated to make room for business blocks and commercial offices.
