Inverness is a small place located in the state of Indiana, in the United States. It is known as an unincorporated community. This means it's a group of homes or buildings that doesn't have its own official local government, like a city or town would. Instead, it's part of a larger area.

What is an Unincorporated Community?

An unincorporated community is a place where people live, but it's not officially a city or town. It doesn't have its own mayor or city council. Instead, it gets its services from the larger county or township it's in.

For example, the police, fire department, and road maintenance for Inverness are handled by Steuben County and Jackson Township. This is different from a city, which would have its own departments for these services.

The area is about 994 feet (around 303 meters) above sea level. Its postal code is 46703, and the area code for phones is 260.
