Gary, Indiana is just 25 miles from downtown Chicago, Illinois, and is adjacent to the Indiana Dunes National Park, which borders Southern Lake Michigan. Gary was named after lawyer Elbert Henry Gary, who was the founding chairman of the United States Steel Corporation. The city is known for its large steel mills and as the birthplace of the Jackson family. In the 1950s, Gary was a bustling city that over 200,000 Hoosiers called home. Over the next few decades, the country’s manufacturing industry declined as U.S. steel struggled to compete with the overseas competition in the steel industry. Gary’s population and popularity began to decline. Much of the city lies abandoned and it faces huge social problems such as poverty and ghettoization. It is estimated that a third of all properties in the city are unoccupied.
Gary became notorious in the mid-1990s as a dangerous city. By 1994, it was known as the “murder capital of the U.S.”.
