From farm town to health care equipment manufacturing - this is Batesville

Hiking Health Care Metropolitans

Straddling both Ripley and Franklin counties, Batesville is also smack dab between two major metropolitans - Indianapolis and Cincinnati. What began as a farming town quickly turned to railroad construction in 1852, after the John Callahan Trust Company bought the land from an area farmer. Today, the manufacturing of hospital and health care equipment is the city’s largest economic industry. Aside from its many dining establishments, residents enjoy sports, hiking, and more at Liberty Park and Brums Woods. Easy access to I-74 makes commuting ideal for locals.
