About Boswell

Boswell is a quiet, friendly town located in southern Benton County right along US Highway 41. Locals affectionately call it the "Hub of the Universe," a nod to its history as an agricultural crossroads where country routes and rail lines converged. Today, the town offers a relaxed, unhurried pace surrounded by open Indiana farmland, giving residents plenty of breathing room while keeping them within an easy drive of Lafayette and West Lafayette.

The community is compact and welcoming, anchored by a historic Carnegie library, a well-kept town park, and the local community center on Main Street. School-age kids attend Prairie Crossing Elementary and Benton Central Jr-Sr High School, which serve families throughout the area. It is the kind of place where people look out for one another and everyday life moves at a comfortable, neighborly speed.
