Hendricks County, Administrative division in Indiana, United States
Hendricks County is an administrative division in central Indiana that encompasses twelve townships stretching between Indianapolis and the western part of the state. The region combines urban neighborhoods with farmland and open spaces.
The region was established in 1824 by the state legislature and named after William Hendricks, who was serving as governor at that time. This choice reflected his importance during Indiana's early years.
The towns across this county hold their own traditions and ways of gathering throughout the year. You notice these customs in community events where neighbors share their heritage and local pride.
The county administration office in Danville operates during weekday business hours and serves residents with various administrative needs. Planning a visit during morning hours typically means shorter wait times for services.
The county commissioners regularly meet in public sessions where citizens can voice concerns about local development projects. These open meetings reflect how decisions affecting the area are made transparently.
