There is no Hodgkins Indiana. The town is located in Cook County, IL southwest of Chicago.

Hodgkins INDIANA is not a city, it is merely a UPS hub. It is located somewhere in Ohio close to the border with Indiana. The reason is that Indiana allows only double trailers at max, while Ohio and Illinois allow triple trailers. Therefore, when UPS trucks travel from west to east, they drop one trailer in Hodkings ILLINOIS, and then after going through Indiana they get the third trailer in HODGKINS IN, which is just the name of the UPS hub. When traveling east to west, UPS trucks drop the third trailer in HODGKINS IN and pick up a third trailer in HODGKINS IL.

Edit: The previous paragraph contains major errors... Hodgkins IN is a UPS transfer facility off Exit 1 of the Indiana Turnpike in Hammond by the Indiana/Illinois border. Illinois does not allow triple bottoms, but both the Indiana and Ohio Turnpikes do allow them.
