Alimony in Bloomington: how it is calculated
Alimony in Bloomington follows Indiana law, not a local rule — the same statute applies whether the case is filed in Monroe County or anywhere else in the state. Here is what that formula produces, and where a Bloomington case is actually heard.
Where a Bloomington case goes
A divorce filed in Bloomington is heard by the Indiana court for Monroe County. The judge applies the state statute below; the county sets the filing procedure, not the amount. Bloomington has about 79,986 residents (Census Bureau, 2024 estimate).

Does Bloomington have its own rule?
No. Ind. Code § 31-15-7-2 applies across Indiana, so a case from Bloomington is decided by the same numbers as one filed anywhere else in the state. What changes locally is the courthouse, the clerk's procedure and how long the docket takes — not the amount.
What the statute says
Ind. Code § 31-15-7-2 — Indiana spousal maintenance (limited to three situations).
