Monmouth—located in the heart of Western Illinois—is a great place to move to. The city has a population of just under 9,000 (2025). Local businesses propagate the downtown area with unique shopping experiences for all. It is also home to Monmouth College, which participates in Division 3 athletics under the NCAA. It’s located about an hour’s drive from Peoria and just 20 minutes from Galesburg—a town slightly larger than Monmouth. Blending the best of a big city with the charm of a small town, this suburban area makes an excellent place to set down roots.
Head to Public Square—the center of town—to get familiar with some of Monmouth’s most popular businesses, such as Market Alley Wine, Avery’s Pub, Patton Block Grill & Brew Pub, and Maude Specklebelly’s. These are prime spots for relaxing on the weekends and connecting with friends and family.
