Two things collide perfectly in Mishawaka —sweeping views of the St. Joseph River at multiple city parks and the second largest retail corridor in the state. Mishawaka, Indiana, is a growing commercial city in Northern Indiana, located next to South Bend.
Population growth, business expansion, and record-breaking new construction tell us that people want to live, work, raise their families and retire in Mishawaka. Community pride is an essential part of life in the Princess City. The quality of life that generates this community pride comes from many sources.
Similar, diverse and everything in-between, St. Joseph County, Indiana, and its communities have it all.
Activity and energy dot the city landscapes, while serenity and the quiet of rural living can be found in the county’s small towns. Cities like South Bend and Mishawaka give residents the taste of mid-size city living coupled with shopping, arts and culture, sports and recreation, not to mention the benefits of having five major universities at our doorstep.
Our cities, towns, and neighborhoods reflect a convergence of tradition and transformation. You see, tradition runs deep here. After all, this is the only place the University of Notre Dame has ever called home. And, this is the place where industrial manufacturing was king. While we honor the traditions and history, we’re also a place on the move—where advanced manufacturing, logistics, health care, and research are king.
