Situated about 40 miles southeast of Chicago, Merrillville is the commercial hub of northwestern Indiana, offering a wide variety of options for shopping, dining, and entertainment. Merrillville residents enjoy access to the expansive Southlake Mall, the area’s only indoor mall, in addition to an array of local and national restaurants.
Merrillville is also home to Deep River Waterpark, where guests can go swimming in the summer and ice skating in the winter. Hidden Lake Park and Oak Ridge Prairie and Oak Savannah Trail provide hiking opportunities while Turkey Creek Golf Course and Innsbrook Country Club supply options for golfing. Merrillville residents delight in cultural amenities like the Indiana Ballet Theatre, Star Plaza Theatre, Merrillville Community Planetarium, and Merrillville-Ross Township Historical Museum as well.
While Merrillville touts a small-town feel, the many metropolitan luxuries of Chicago are less than an hour’s drive away. Convenience to Interstates 65, 90, and 94 as well as U.S. 30 makes getting around from Merrillville simple.

School data provided by
GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
