Whitley County, Indiana
Whitley County is a slice of Midwest charm tucked away in the northeastern part of the state. It’s centered around the small but lively town of Columbia City
What really sets Whitley County apart, though, is its natural beauty. The area has lakes for fishing, kayaking, or just soaking it all in. Then there’s the Blue River, winding through the county.
Agriculture is big here (of course). The community spirit here definitely shines at events like the annual Old Settlers’ Days. Overall, it’s a place of history and the great outdoors.
