    That's nationwide right now.
    A couple or three thousand, or more, new construction, single family homes are being built right now in Las Vegas/Henderson area. Shortage of homes keeps prices higher. By the time you get in the workforce, save for a down payment, have good credit score, home prices will be lower. Rent for awhile.

    Whatever you prefer. Indianapolis is high crime and taxes. Live where you're most comfortable though.
    If I ever leave Nevada, I'll move to Florida or Asia. Lived in both places and love both places.

    You're still young though with a career just beginning. Plenty of time to plan well and for what's in the best interest of yourself and your family.
    South Dakota is also a good state with no state income taxes. Several truckers have relocated there for the tax benefits and also plenty of trucking jobs there.

    Housing is pretty cheap in Birmingham and the reason is high crime. People want to live in safe communities.
    The panhandle of Florida is also pretty good.
