Have an opportunity to move to Beech Grove in Indianapolis. Is it a nice area? Urban or suburban? Bicycle friendly? Pedestrian friendly? Local shops, cafes, and the like? Crime? Any useful tips?

Easy access to other nice areas? What would be the nice (urban) residential areas in Indy, barring any suburban sprawl, subdivision-type areas that may exist?

Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Hoosiers! (By the way, I was an adopted Hoosier in the 70s --- went to school in Bloomington and loved it!)

Many locals knock Beech Grove as being full of old people and a bit "hickish," but I think this is unfair. BG is not elaborate. It's a tidy community largely comprised of older, well-kept homes. Nothing splashy. The downtown needs work, but it's convenient to the shopping areas along Emerson at I-465, Thompson and Southport. BG has its own school district, which many seem to like.
