Crete is an unincorporated community in Greensfork Township, Randolph County, in the U.S. state of Indiana.
A post office was established at Crete in 1882, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1918.[2] The community may have been named after the pet name of Lucretia, a local young woman.[3]
Crete is located about 3miles east of the town of Lynn.
Jim Jones, leader of the Peoples Temple cult, was born in Crete in 1931.[4]
