Jasper, Indiana Advances to The Championship Round 2022 Strongest Town Contest
When I hear the town of Jasper, Indiana mentioned, several memories come to mind. Back in the day, I worked for Noble Roman's Pizza and there was a location in Jasper. I also worked for Buehler's Buy-Low in the 90s and the corporate headquarters was located in Jasper.
There was also the time that I almost drove off of the road because I was distracted by a giant flag as I drove into town. Of course, Jasper is known for a lot more than my silly stories, and the small town in Indiana is getting some national attention.

The Final Pair:
- Norwood, Ohio

What Makes a Strong Town?
Jasper has been taking steps to revitalize areas around the town to provide better amenities and business opportunities for its residents. A town that can take feedback and adapt to change, especially during a pandemic is another key component to being a strong town.
