Macomb is the proud home of Western Illinois University and a tight-knit community. Macomb began as a small railroad town in the early 19th century, and maintains an aura of old-world charm to this day. The historic downtown square is brimming with eclectic shops and eateries while Western Illinois University routinely hosts art gallery exhibitions and speaker series.

Macomb’s small-town feel is further accentuated by its strong sense of community. A wide variety of events brings the community together in Macomb, including game nights, movies in the park, parades, and festivals. Opportunities for outdoor recreation abound at Macomb’s local parks as well as nearby Argyle Lake State Park. Des Moines, Saint Louis, Milwaukee, and Chicago are all within a four-hour drive from Macomb, should you miss the bustle of city life.
