City - Sterling

On the north bank of the Rock River in northwest Illinois sits Sterling, a colorful suburb with a laidback, family-friendly atmosphere. Beautiful homes and apartment rentals overlook the river in south Sterling, with more residential developments stretching north towards Lynn Boulevard. Lincoln Highway is where you’ll find incredible dining and shopping options just steps from the water. Sterling also has a great number of community parks for residents to enjoy, including Central Park, Dale Park, Flock Park, and Sinnissippi Park.

Sterling remains relatively secluded amongst the small towns that line the riverbanks. Moline sits 56 miles west, and Rockford nearly the same distance northeast. Neither are out of reach if you’re in search of a fun weekend or day trip.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
