Ideal Romeoville, IL

Named as the twin and rival community to Joliet-now known as Joliet-the village of Romeoville was called Romeo before its incorporation. In the words of the movie, "A river runs through it." With the rolling Des Plaines River meandering along the eastern border and the bustling Stevenson Expressway clipping the northern edge, modern Romeoville is ideally positioned for residential and economic growth. The village is rapidly transforming from a quaint small town into an urban hub and vital suburb. Several farms and home-based businesses have been joined by corporate offices and distribution centers within the boundaries of the village. In fact, Romeoville now claims a remarkably diverse industrial tax base and new business parks tend to fill rapidly. The private Lewis University and the north campus of Joliet Junior College are located in Romeoville, adding the energy and excitement of a college town. Attractive and affordable homes create another magnet to the village, further enhanced by access to major thoroughfares. Recreational amenities are highlighted by an 87-acre island in the Des Plaines River that offers a museum, picnic area, outdoor amphitheater, hiking trails, and canoeing.
