Water Softener Installation in Jeffersonville, IN
Jeffersonville is supplied by Indiana American Water - S. Indiana, which draws ground water. That one fact does more to predict whether a softener is worth it here than anything a salesperson will ask you on the phone.
The short version
The supplier for Jeffersonville is Indiana American Water - S. Indiana, drawing ground water. Water out of the ground has picked up whatever the rock holds, and calcium and magnesium are what hardness means. Whether a softener is worth installing turns on the hardness figure that supplier publishes each year, not on anything assessed over the telephone.

What to do with thatGet your hardness figure
Ask Indiana American Water - S. Indiana for its water quality report, or find it online — hardness is on it, and it is the number the rest of this turns on. That figure comes in milligrams per liter. Divide by about 17 to get the grains per gallon a softener is rated in.
From there, the sizing math takes a minute and tells you what capacity actually fits the household. If your fixtures also stain orange, iron has to be settled first — oxidized iron clogs softener resin.
