Since 2009, Greater Lafayette’s Community of Choice Committee has been working to initiate a broad-based dialog about the quality of life within Greater Lafayette which moves beyond superficial statements of praise and commendation to defined, specific facts as they exist and as they compare to other comparable communities. The key inquiry we pursued was, “What will it take for Greater Lafayette to be a community of choice for diverse, top talent?” This page features the final plan (first download on your right) plus all the additional reports that were generated during the process.
