About Kempton

Kempton is a quiet, close-knit town set among the farm fields of western Tipton County. The community got its start in 1875 when the railroad arrived, taking its name from local landowner David Kemp. Today, the town preserves its original compact street grid, where neat homes and quiet roads sit right up against the open countryside. It offers a peaceful, laid-back atmosphere for anyone wanting a genuine small-town setting in central Indiana.

Daily life here is simple and relaxed, with the local volunteer fire department and neighborhood park serving as familiar community anchors. Residents enjoy the privacy of country living alongside an easy drive to larger hubs like Tipton, Frankfort, and Kokomo for work, groceries, and dining. It serves as a comfortable home base for anyone looking for quiet rural charm with convenient access across central Indiana.
