Indiana recognizes that cocaine abuse in the state is a growing problem. There are several factors that contribute to this epidemic. The largest reason for the increase of cocaine abuse is Indiana's location, geographically. The northern part of Indiana is located right on Lake Michigan, this provides for international shipping directly into the state. There are also seven interstate highways and twenty U.S. highways that run throughout the state allowing for drugs to be transported in personal vehicles as well as commercial trucks. Additional reports indicate that airlines and busses are also popular ways to transport drugs like cocaine.

As more and more people seek help for cocaine abuse, it is becoming clear that Indiana's proximity to Chicago is another major cocaine source for cocaine addicts in Indiana.
