Small town advantage near big town amenities.

Waterloo offers the advantages of a small town, such as affordable housing and quiet atmosphere, but is close to major shopping facilities, recreational activities, and other conveniences of modern life.

Waterloo is at the “crossroads” of Northeastern Indiana linking several major transportation routes including northeast Indiana’s only Amtrak passenger train stop, Norfolk Southern freight lines, Interstate 69, U.S. 6, and IN 427.

Waterloo is a quiet and safe community with nearby assets. Five minutes to the south, the City of Auburn provides entertainment and essential goods; 25 minutes to the south, Fort Wayne is the area’s regional urban center with arts, culture, sports, and a wide variety of activities for the whole family. Waterloo is only 15 minutes from the DeKalb County Airport and 40 minutes from Fort Wayne International Airport. Just 20 miles to the north of Waterloo, the “lake country” of Steuben County offers many year-round recreational opportunities.

Downtown Waterloo Historical Buildings

Historic downtown Waterloo is a short walk from the depot. Our quaint little town features local business with limited hours so plan ahead if you arrive by train. Overnight accommodations can be arranged in nearby towns of Auburn, Angola, or Fort Wayne. Uber and taxis can be arranged in nearby Fort Wayne.
