Indian Hill (also referred to as Indian Hills) is a small rural community located about twelve miles north of Newton in north central Newton County. Highway maps of the 1930s and 1940s showed farms in the area. The village also had a church. Though the community was still shown on maps in the 1990s, no population estimates were available.
