Indiana and Texas -- A New Relationship

Crown Point mayor touts Civic Center plans, help for Texas | Lake County News: The city also announced plans to become a sister city to Alvin, Texas, a suburb of Houston and one of the areas hard hit by Harvey. Alvin was selected because it is similar in size to Crown Point and has a downtown square similar to the historic venue in Crown Point. Also, many people in Crown Point have friends or relatives in the Texas city, so it seemed to be a good fit and a way for residents to help the flood victims that doesn’t involve going through national organizations.
