Decatur County, Indiana

Decatur Location Map Indiana

Decatur County sits in southeast Indiana, about halfway between Indianapolis and Cincinnati. The county isn’t flashy, but it’s interesting in its own right.

Greensburg, the county seat, is famous for its courthouse tower. There’s a tree growing up there. No joke. The Tree City Fall Festival is also a big event in Greensburg.

Farming is big business here with your typical crops in Indiana. Honda has a big plant here, which shook things up in this traditionally rural area.
