- I've removed the entire section on the high school which had been added with the above quote. Seems more sensible than leaving the garish template over the rest of the article, which is unproblematic. older≠wiser 02:25, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Roundabouts
I lived many years in Carmel and I can't think of a single roundabout in the city. Where did this come from? User:Jjb
I think they meant cul-de-sacs.
Nope, roundabouts as in traffic rotaries. They've been replacing quite a few four-way stops with them for a few years now.
I live on the North side of Indy and lived in Carmel till 2004, the City has been replacing 4 way stops, at strategic locations, with roundabouts for the past few years. Just look at Carmel on Google earth. K_Watson1984
Yeah, Ever since the construction of Hazel Dell Parkway on the East Side (of Carmel), roundabouts have been implemented throughout the city, err, community. For instance, Spring Mill Road (West Side) has only 1 stop sign and 6 (I think) roundabouts through it's entire route in Carmel. I actually believe the number now to be over 23. Still, they're very controversial, as I found out after writing my Senior Thesis on Roundabouts. --The_Source 16:11, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Average home price
Can some one please cite the reference that puts the average value of a house at $750,000 before stating it as fact? That seems far too high considering the per capita is $35k. K_Watson1984
Will be contacting several real estate agents and city offices on 04/03/07 to obtain the offical 2005 average house price. Until then please do not include the disputed value. K_Watson1984
Please make sure you are finding the average home price... I keep finding the median home price on the web, but not the average one. And the per capita does not affect the average home price in Carmel; if you take a look in real estate ads from the past few years, there's more than a handful that are pretty pricey. An example would be the former Conseco CEO's mansion, which is being sold at around a price of 20 million... Heyhey Hey 15:59, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
