It's an unincorporated community in Buck Creek Township along US-40, east of Indianapolis and west of Greenfield. No town hall. No municipal sewer footprint anywhere in the township. What there is: farmhouses, country residential lots, an elementary school, and Indianapolis Regional Airport (still known locally as Mt. Comfort Airport). The septic dependence here is nearly total.
Buck Creek Township is septic country, end to end
If Mt. Comfort has a single defining feature, it's that there's no piped sewer anywhere in the township. Every home, farmhouse, and small business along US-40 from the Marion County line east into Greenfield's outer ring is on private septic.
The systems vary widely. Original installs from the 1950s and 1960s on the older farms. Post-war ranch tanks that pre-date modern soil science. Newer precast systems on the country-residential lots that filled in along Mt. Comfort Road and CR 200W during the 1990s and 2000s. Mt. Comfort Elementary sits along Mt. Comfort Road, with the school district overlapping our weekly route.

Knowing when to call
Slow drains, gurgling toilets, sewer smell on humid days, and a green stripe over the drain field while the rest of the yard sits brown are the early signs. The full diagnostic walkthrough is on our Hancock County septic guide. For nearby coverage, see McCordsville and Greenfield.
