Welcome to the City of Franklin
Thank you for visiting the city of Franklin's website.
Only twenty minutes south of Indianapolis, Franklin is an exciting blend of tradition and innovation.
Franklin has a rich history, dating back to its founding in 1822. The county seat of Johnson County, Franklin has a population of roughly 22,000.
Our downtown boasts traditional main street shops, coffeehouses and restaurants, and the outstanding academic institution of Franklin College. Victorian mansions line King and Jefferson streets, and our trails provide plenty of opportunities for a quiet walk or a scenic jog.
But Franklin is also a city on the move. Our city is home to a state-of-the-art high school, a bustling night life, and nonprofit groups that work hard to advance our quality of life in many ways. Also, the city's pro-business attitude and strategic location have attracted companies from all over the world, including five Japanese corporations.
