History
Built in 1956 by Lusk Corporation and U.S. Steel, Indian Heights was long an unincorporated community and CDP outside Kokomo and grew rapidly. Kokomo annexed Indian Heights into the city in 2012, and Indian Heights now receives emergency first responder services from Kokomo rather than the county. Indian Heights still uses Taylor Schools though despite being in Kokomo since it is a part of Taylor Township.
By definition a CDP can not be an incorporated place, it can have no structured government, and has to be directly against another incorporated place, or have clearly defined natural boundaries. With that in mind Indian Heights is no longer eligible to be a CDP for Howard County. Instead it is possible for New London, Jerome, or Sycamore to take its place in the next election as they all fall under those guidelines.
