Fort Wayne may not be quite as large as Indianapolis, but what it lacks in size it more than makes up for with charm and grace. In fact, there's actually hard evidence to support this. Not only is Fort Wayne a three-time winner of the All-American City Award, most recently in 2009, but it also received the Outstanding Achievement City Livability Award from the US Conference of Mayors in 1999. Of course, residents know that Fort Wayne is among the best places to live in the entire US—but it doesn't hurt to know that the rest of the country thinks so too.

With so much going on in this great city, it's easy to get caught spending a lot of time out on the town. And when you're out, you shouldn't be concerned about what's going on at your home while you're away. That's why ADT offers solutions like smart home automation with camera access through a convenient phone app. So the next time you're out at the Johnny Appleseed or Three Rivers Festival at Johnny Appleseed Park or Headwaters Park, you can focus on what's really important: fun, food, and fireworks!

Despite all the amazing things about this city, residents of Fort Wayne are a humble bunch with roots that extend from a large influx of Catholic, Lutheran, and Episcopal faiths in the 1800s. Today, the city is host to over 360 churches from a multitude of religions. Don't let the City of Churches fool you though, Fort Wayne knows how to have a good laugh.
