Has anyone heard significant criticism of Indiana's road?

I have. I'm wondering if there's merit to it, or we everyone thinks the roads where they live are bad.

I've driven out west and northwest where the composition of roads is different, loader like concrete, but they might not have temperature swings, use salt, or plow.

Marion County usually has bad roads compared to the suburbs, but that's a whole thing of its own

Thoughts?

My mom used to live in Indiana, and I can recall when you crossed into Indiana right around Richmond, I-70 turned into a mess of pot holes. Not sure if that's still a thing because I'm not out that way much anymore.

I've driven pretty extensively throughout both Ohio and Indiana and I don't think either state has a monopoly on terrible roads.

I drive through there all the time, they've done some construction and it's not as bad as it used to be.

I will say that neither Ohio nor Indiana has potholes like what I've seen in Michigan, especially around Detroit.
