Will county provides a welcoming community well suited for a variety of people. It's home to Nascar races, as well as it's own professional minor league baseball team. Will county is also home to two interstates known as the "The Cross Roads of America" which are I-55 and I-80. There is an abundance of shopping strips that have a fair ratio of self-owned businesses to major brands scattered across the community, not to mention enough entertainment events for anyone to find something they'll enjoy on the weekends. Housing is fair, both in quality and price, with satisfactory schools and educational opportunities for your children to attend. Overall, Will county is has its own unique qualities that differ from others, with an accepting community for all walks of life.
The school systems can be good, and there are plenty of nature preserves. There is not much to do and a lot of cornfields.
More things that are fun for the family would be nice. Low crime rate in this area is nice to see. Will county is growing,eventhough Illinois has more people leaving the state than coming in. Police officers seem to be not to picky and seem to be very fair in the area. Will county also has the largest led lighting Santa claus in America during the winter months.
