Starke County, Indiana
Starke County is rural Indiana that’s often overlooked. This flat farmland country is where corn and soybean fields stretch as far as the eye can see.
But it’s not all agriculture. The Kankakee River forms the county’s western border. Try out some of its great fishing spots. Bass Lake is also a local favorite for summer fun.
You might spot some wind turbines on the horizon. They’re a more recent addition to the landscape. With around 23,000 people living here, there’s tons of room to spare.
