  • Pawnee, Indiana is the fictional setting for Parks and Recreation. It is located 90 miles from Indianapolis and 35 miles past Bloomington and is the state's seventh-largest city. Pawnee is a city with low operating costs and a large labor pool. Legend has it, Reverend Howell chose "Pawnee" as the name for the city accidentally - a functional illiterate, he tried to write "Paradise" on the city charter and his scrawls were misinterpreted. The city's infrastructure is efficiently developed and its citizens are moderately well educated, making it an acceptable location for business. Growth in Pawnee is slow and steady, but Pawneeans say that what isn't bolted down can be improved. The city is dedicated to maintaining its progress through reasonable expansion and sound planning. There is a lot of suspicion that Pawnee is based off of the real neighboring cities of New Albany and Clarksville, located about 95 miles south of Indianapolis and 120 miles southeast of Terre Haute with a combined population of 80,000 people. ==About PawneeIncorporated: 1817 De-Incorporated due to Famine, Corruption, and a Host of Other Problems: 1818 Re-Incorporated, This Time for Good: 1819 Population (a/o 2010 census): 66,218, plus or minus ~5,000 Population (a/o 2000 census): 79,218 Mayor: Gary Gergich (2017 - present) Median Household Income: $38,360 Highest Point: Larry Joe Bird Municipal Landfill (263 sq. ft) Lowest Point: Devil's Fissure (unknown) Denonym: Pawneean Sister Cities: Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina; Krakow, Poland; Pyongyang, North Korea; Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo; Boraqua, Venezuela (formerly) Official City Tree: Indiana Common Shrub Official City Bird: Giant Grizzled-Neck Cackling Pigeon Official City Drink: Frooties!™ Carbonated Corn Syrup==
