Here are a few tell-tale signs you probably grew up or have lived in Westfield, Indiana.

1. You knew a good amount of your classmates all the way up from elementary school to senior year of high school.

2. You either went to Shamrock Springs and were super proud of it because you had the super cool ramp that none of the other elementary schools had, or you went to one of the other elementary schools and were super bitter and jealous about Shamrock Springs having a ramp.

3. You had Mr. Christianson as a math teacher in middle school, or you heard about how awesome he was through other students.

4. You cannot for the life of you remember how 31 looked before all of the construction because of how much everything has changed.

5. You have about four different ways of getting to one place just because there is a good possibility that three of those four ways are not possible due to some form of construction.

6. There is really nowhere exciting to go so you have spent a good deal of your weekend nights at Steak N Shake or getting slushies at Speedway or Rickers.

7. You agree that Grand Park is super cool but the traffic it brings in is super not.

8. You have figured out not to go more than five miles-per-hour over the speed limit on Oak Rd. because there is almost always a cop sitting, waiting to pull you over.

9. You probably hate Carmel with a burning passion.

10. Also sometimes Noblesville and Zionsville too, just because.

11. You have a defensive instinct when people question Shamrocks being the mascot of the school/city. Shamrocks are cool too.

12. You have talked about how boring Westfield is but also have developed a strong connection with the city and the people in it.

13. You always have/had something green to wear on St. Patrick’s Day.

14. When people not from central Indiana ask where you are from you say, “a little city next to Carmel” and they immediately understand.

15. You are proud to be a Shamrock!
