In Indiana, indy is a common abbreviation for "Indianapolis," the state's capitol. For example, a resident may give a lost tourist instructions to the capitol: "Just take 65 North from here, and it will take you all the way to indy."
People may use it in various contexts, whether in messages, online, or in real life. They may be talking about their plans to go to the city, where they've lived, or something boring, like the economic production of the downtown area.
People outside of Indiana may also use indy to refer to the capitol or the state (Indiana). If they are fans of the Indiana Jones movie series, they may also use indy to refer to the titular hero.
