The city of Momence nestles against the banks of the Kankakee River, encouraging recreational activities like fishing, boating, and water sports. This community has an expanding economy based on agriculture and light industry and serves as a hub for residents of the surrounding townships of Momence and Ganeer. The metropolitan area that encompasses Kankakee, Bradley, and Bourbonnais is only 10 miles away, adding a world of additional attractions and amenities. Local highlights include the famous Gladiolus Festival, one of the state's finest school systems, a charming downtown district, historic homes and museums, and excellent highway access including close proximity to Interstate 65. The quiet village of St. Anne is near Momence and Sun River Terrace, drawing newcomers to a pleasing selection of primarily well-kept older homes shaded by mature greenery. Although St. Anne is primarily a bedroom community for commuters, those who do live and work in this small village often bicycle or walk to work.
