With street lamps lining the streets and historic buildings throughout the neighborhood, Midtown Rockford welcomes newcomers with low rental rates and a renewed sense of community. Sitting just southeast of Downtown Rockford across the Rock River, Midtown offers artists' lofts, elegant Victorian homes, and rehabbed multi-use buildings to urban pioneers who want to join this trendy, fast-growing neighborhood.

Take to the streets of Midtown to sample cuisine of the neighborhood, with Spanish, Irish, Italian, and Swedish specialties awaiting you. Neighbors show up every year to support the Midtown Ethnic Parade and Festival, which features a beer garden, international food booths, and genealogy advisors. The regular Art Scene invites local artists to create pop-up art for the whole neighborhood to enjoy.
