}}Taylorville, also known as Taylorsville or Dresser, is an unincorporated community in eastern Sugar Creek Township, Vigo County, in the U.S. state of Indiana.[2] It is part of the Terre Haute metropolitan area. Though the United States Board on Geographic Names has officially designated the area as Taylorville, the 2010 United States Census considered the area a census designated place called Dresser.[3]

History

Taylorville was founded in 1908, and was named after a local farmer named Taylor.[4] A post office was established under the name Dresser in 1932, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1935.[5]

Geography

Taylorville is located at {{coord|39|27|45|N|87|25|25|W|type:city}} at an elevation of 591 feet. Located very near the Wabash River, the town is nestled between Terre Haute and West Terre Haute.
