About Advance

If you want quiet, small-town living surrounded by open farmland, Advance is a peaceful spot in western Boone County. Home to around 500 residents, it is a close-knit community where daily life moves at a relaxed pace. The town got its optimistic name back in the 1870s as a hopeful bet on the coming railroad, and today it holds onto that simple rural charm. Kids attend Western Boone schools, and a short drive puts you in Lebanon or Indianapolis whenever you need shopping, dining, and city conveniences.
