About Carthage

Carthage is a small, quiet community set along the Big Blue River in northern Rush County. Daily life here is relaxed and distinctly rural, with neighbors catching up at the historic Henry Henley Public Library and taking advantage of the surrounding green spaces. Most shopping and dining options, along with the local schools, are just a short drive north in Knightstown. For people looking to escape busier suburban areas, Carthage offers an affordable, low-traffic environment with plenty of open air and a tight-knit neighborhood feel.
