LOCATION OVERVIEW
Located in the heart of Northwest Indiana and serving communities throughout the South Shore region along Lake Michigan, Merrillville reflects the unique character of “The Region”, an area shaped by strong community ties, industrial and entrepreneurial roots, and deep connections to both Chicago and the broader Midwest. Influenced by nearby Valparaiso University, Lake Michigan, and generations of families who have lived and worked throughout Northwest Indiana, the community carries a grounded and resilient spirit balanced by growing business development and regional connectivity. The area’s close ties to Chicago also extend into its cultural identity, from sports loyalties and food traditions to the many professionals, business owners, executives, retirees, and multi-generational families whose personal and professional lives often span state lines.
Waverly Advisors’ Merrillville team has earned the trust of clients across Northwest Indiana, Chicagoland, Southwest Michigan, surrounding communities and nationally through a relationship-focused approach grounded in accessibility, collaboration, and personalized guidance for individuals, families, businesses, and corporate retirement plans.
