Ainsworth is an unincorporated town in Ross Township, Lake County, Indiana. It is located near the intersection of Indiana State Road 51 and the Canadian National Railroad (formerly the Grand Trunk Western Railroad). In the early 1990's, the area containing Ainsworth was annexed by the city of Hobart. A failed attempt to fight the annexation would have seen the area incorporated into the town of Ainsworth, thus bringing back the name of the old village.
