Castleton was a so-called included town under the consolidated city-county government in Indianapolis called Unigov. However, the meaning of this included town status was somewhat uncertain, as under state law Indiana Code 36-3-1-4 sec. 4(a)(2)), included towns are legally part of the Consolidated City of Indianapolis and are fully subject to the laws and control of the government of Indianapolis. In 1992, Castleton officially dissolved and reverted to the City of Indianapolis.
