Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Martinsville, Indiana, was once called the "Goldfish Capital of the World." The town was home to much swampland, which original settler Eugene Shireman turned into fisheries. Today, while people no longer call it the Goldfish capital, the city still has several giant fisheries that sell fish to people all over the world.
Fish are at the center of Martinsville's history. And, yes, you can still see Shireman's famous fisheries in the middle of the Shireman subdivision. However, today, Martinsville is about more than fishing. The small Indiana town, home to about 12,000 people, is a commuter town to Indianapolis, just 30 miles to its southwest. People come to Martinsville to have a lovely, rural life with easy access to a nearby world-class big city. You can't ask for much more from Midwestern living! View Martinsville City Guide
