About Princeton
Princeton is a small city in southwestern Indiana with a population of about 8,300. It serves as the county seat of Gibson County, which was established in 1813. The town is named after Captain William Prince, an early settler and county commissioner. Princeton grew with transportation developments like the Wabash and Erie Canal and the railroad, supporting local industry. The city was heavily affected by the 1925 Tri-State Tornado. Today, it is part of the Evansville metropolitan area, located roughly 26 miles from Evansville, which provides air travel options.
