That was true until 2006 apparently....

All counties in Indiana currently observe daylight saving time. However, this state has a controversial history regarding daylight saving time. Most of Indiana did not observe daylight saving time prior to 2006. Some counties, such as Floyd, Clark, and Harrison, observed daylight saving time while other counties did not.

To avoid further confusion, a bill was passed in 2005 to ensure that the entire state would observe daylight saving time from April 2006 onwards, regardless of which time zone the counties followed. However, this law did not stop residents and officials from debating as to whether the state should follow Central Time (CST/CDT) or Eastern Time (EST/EDT).

Indiana is currently split into two time zones. The official dividing line between the Eastern and Central time zones has progressively moved west from the Indiana-Ohio border to the Indiana-Illinois border.
Pretty weird having two different time zones in one state though, could make things a bit confusing if your daily commute was between the two...
