Our names are MaryBeth & Jared Hoss, and we are the husband/wife duo behind BeLocal NE Indy Suburbs! In putting this publication together, it has always been our goal to both help you and guide you to Discover Local Favorites in you new hometown, especially since you're our neighbors!

Whether you’ve moved from across town, another state, or even another country, settling into a new community can be both exhilarating and overwhelming. The ultimate purpose of BeLocal is to bring to light the countless highlights of living in the North Indy Suburbs, and to make your transition more seamless and fun!

What can you expect to see as you continue on throughout the magazine? A helpful, insightful and carefully constructed resource, built from the mindset of being a word-of-mouth referral before you may know anyone to ask “Who should I call?”

Here are a few highlights:

>>> Numerous personal recommendations from local residents wanting to be the first to say "Welcome to the Neighborhood"

>>> Several guide-styled articles sharing options that you have for your day-to-day activities 

>>> Several “Local Tips” spread throughout the pages, with names and pictures attached so you can hopefully recognize someone when you go to the grocery store or the park or anywhere else in the community 

>>> Countless photos of your new neighbors, their pets, the landmarks in your new community, and the destinations you’ll soon be exploring as you figure out how to spend your free time going forward

As you can start to see, our goal is to expedite your acclimation to your new community and to make you and your family more comfortable in your new surroundings in the shortest amount of time possible. 

Thanks to our advertising partners, BeLocal is mailed 100% free to new movers each and every month! The businesses listed in the magazine serve as a recommendation to you for the needs you are likely to have as you move into your new home and community. These businesses are excited to meet you and have an opportunity to serve you and your family. Their participation in this BeLocal NE Indy Suburbs is all about making a deeper connection and commitment to their own communities. They wanted to support this magazine being mailed to you, and they are looking forward to saying hello when you call.

That said, we'd like to ask a favor: Take time to read the articles, the recommendations, and the helpful tips. Hold on to the magazine, and use it as a tool allowing you to always know who to call and where to go. Remember, everything in this BeLocal magazine is from a LOCAL who was excited to contribute and help you.

Lastly, let us know what you think! We'd love to hear how this BeLocal magazine helped make your transition a little bit easier.
