About Salem Indiana

SmallIndianaSalem is located in scenic Southern Indiana just 35 miles north of Louisville, Kentucky and less than 100 miles south of Indianapolis, Indiana. Salem is a great place to live and make a living. We have high achieving public schools, and a wide variety of community activities. Salem also has a strong and diverse economic base. If you're a visitor to Salem, we hope you will take note of our many unique and historic destinations. As a city, Salem has retained much of its small town flavor, a flavor that is enhanced by the city’s tree-lined streets, stately old homes and a friendly atmosphere that has been nurtured and handed down through the generations.

HoosierUplandsGrant2020On June 17th, the City of Salem and the Salem Fire Department received a $20,000 grant from the Hoosier Uplands Economic Development Corporation. 

The grant is to be used for the replacement of a failing outdoor staircase, which is wooden and poses safety concerns due to deterioration.

The Community Development and Improvement Program Grant allows the Salem Fire Department to have a safe and usable 2nd floor means of egress from the building.  This grant will improve the current design by utilizing an all steel structure that the weather will not destroy.  The City of Salem and the Salem Fire Department are grateful to Hoosier Uplands for this critical funding for improved Department safety.
