About Vincennes
Vincennes sits along the Wabash River on the southwestern border of Indiana, offering a relaxed small-town feel for its roughly 17,000 residents. Vincennes University gives the area a steady boost of energy, bringing campus events, job opportunities, and educational programs to the riverfront. Getting around is easy thanks to U.S. Routes 41 and 50, which make regional travel and daily commutes into southern Indiana and Illinois simple.
As Indiana's oldest city, Vincennes has a distinctive character shaped by centuries of local history. George Rogers Clark National Historical Park provides plenty of open green space and riverside walking paths, while the historic downtown features unique architecture, local diners, and the Red Skelton Museum of American Comedy. With affordable housing and a friendly, down-to-earth community, it is an easy place to put down roots.
