Bloomington doesn't really fit anywhere...
The nicest (?) thing I can say about Bloomington is that my ex lives there. hahaha . . . outside of that, the campus of Indiana University is quite beautiful. With that being the issue, the town is relatively dead for 3 months of the year, along with the economy. However, there is a modern business sector forming right on the interstate. Last time I was there, I counted about 8 4+ story office buildings being built, as well as a decent commercial sector. I will say in about 10 years, Bloomington will be a MAJOR business hub in the region.
Bloomington doesn't actually have an Interstate highway nearby, but your point is still taken.
