Indianapolis ranks second in the nation for having the biggest number of monuments and memorials, with only Washington D.C. having more. Indiana as a state, meanwhile, is known as 'America's crossroads', which is shown better in Indianapolis than anywhere else in the state, as six different interstate highways cross in the city. Wherever there is a transportation network of this magnitude, however, there is also always a significant drug abuse problem.

Lastly, drug and alcohol abuse in Indianapolis is putting a significant drain on health care resources. Admission figures for the emergency room as demonstrated that:

  • There were 1,724 admissions relating to heroin.
