Anita is an extinct town in Hensley Township, Johnson County, Indiana, United States.[3][4]

Anita was the site of an Illinois Central Railroad passenger depot, the station house of which was moved and converted to a home near Trafalgar in 1936.[4][5][6]

By the 1980s, Anita had been depopulated. The state highway department intended to remove it from maps, but preservationists succeeded in placing a roadside plaque to commemorate the town.[4]
