Population 750 and growing.
Located 12 miles south of Route 80, and directly off of
I-39, about 50 miles north of Bloomington and 75 miles south of Rockford. There is great development potential and the housing
market is booming. Only 10 minutes from Lasalle-Peru area where there is the Peru Mall, several grocery stores and many well
known restaurants. It is country living with the convenience of the city. The village now has 2 TIF districts that
include the full village boundaries. Great development area through the I-39 Corridor!!
