About DeMotte

DeMotte is a growing northwest Indiana community of around 4,000 residents, situated right where U.S. 231 meets State Road 10. It offers a relaxed, small-town atmosphere surrounded by quiet farmland, making it a popular choice for people who want extra space while staying within driving distance of Crown Point and the greater Chicago area. The town has deep Dutch roots, which locals celebrate every August during the Touch of Dutch festival with food, craft vendors, and community parades downtown.
