About Seymour

The City of Seymour is located one hour south of Indianapolis, one hour north of Louisville and one and one-half hours west of Cincinnati. Seymour, Jackson County, Indiana is the place to live your future! Seymour has a population of approximately 20,000 residents and is served by Mayor Matthew Nicholson, Clerk-Treasurer Darrin Boas and seven Councilmembers.

Seymour is a thriving industrial, commercial, and residential community based on well-planned growth and progress. The quality of life is demonstrated by Seymour’s “small town” yet bustling atmosphere, beautiful parks and open spaces, attractive landscaping and arterial streets, a low crime rate, quality schools and affordable housing. Because of the geographic location, a pro-business environment, and a proactive local government — Seymour is expected to continue to grow.

Seymour Yellow Tulip Project

In the fall of 2023, Seymour planted our first 1000 yellow tulip bulbs in the roundabout on South Walnut Street. The yellow bulbs were planted to grow mental health awareness. This idea was brought to us by a member of the Key Club at Seymour High School who also planted 500 more bulbs at the Seymour sign near the interstate. Visit https://theyellowtulipproject.org/ to learn more about the meaning behind yellow tulips.

As the first 1000 bulbs bloomed this spring, we enjoyed the explosion of color it gave drivers as they passed. This also led us to realize that we have another roundabout just a short hop over on South O’Brien Street that could be just as colorful if not more. After much discussion we have decided to call it the unity roundabout and plant it with mixed tulips, starting in the fall of 2024. The first bloom will be in spring of 2025.

Today I am asking you to help us add to one or both roundabouts for next spring. Tulip bulbs cost about $0.20 per bulb. The Walnut Street roundabout fully planted will take a little over 28,000 bulbs, or just over $5,600 to finish. Each 1,000 bulbs adds several more feet each year. I hope this letter finds you in a place where you can help add to the spring colors for next year.
