About CityDesk Indianapolis

CityDesk Indianapolis is a local news publication focused on the stories that affect daily life in Indianapolis, MN — housing and home services, local business, health, food, getting around, and the civic decisions in between. Our goal is practical, reader-first reporting: clear, useful, and grounded in the place you live.

Covering Indianapolis

Our reporting is grounded in Indianapolis, MN: the neighborhoods, local businesses, civic decisions, and day-to-day issues that shape life here — written for the people who actually live in Indianapolis.

How we work

Our coverage is produced with the help of AI tools and reviewed by editors before it is published. We are transparent about that process — see our Editorial Standards for the full detail on how stories are researched, written, edited, and corrected.

Supporting local business

Some articles include clearly labelled sponsored links to local businesses, and we run advertising across the site. These placements never change our editorial judgment, and sponsored content is always disclosed. If you run a business in Indianapolis, see Advertise With Us.
