Also, Indy employers are having a love affair with twenty year old employees. It’s clear Gen-X is not wanted here.

That makes sense. This state has some of the lowest wages in the country. Gen X has been working for 30+ years, yet our wages have been stagnant since 2009. If another state is willing to pay enough to raise us out of the “working poor” class, then we should leave. Cheap housing was the only benefit to living in Indy, but that’s been going away since 2015. There is no other reason to stay here.
