Joliet Overview
The fourth largest city in the great state of Illinois, Joliet is located a mere forty miles from the epicenter of Chicago and provides an ideal lifestyle for those yearning to combine high-class amenities with a scenic rural landscape.
What is the history of Joliet?
Taking its namesake from the city's founding daughter, Joliet grew quickly along the banks of the scenic Des Plains River. Incorporating as a city in 1852, steel and other manufacturing provided a steady economic base for many years. Despite a bit of a downturn in the 1980s, Joliet apartments and the entire downtown scene have enjoyed revitalization lately, including the addition of area casinos and other infrastructure.
How is the weather in Joliet?
Like much of Illinois, Joliet residents can expect snowy winters filled with blustery winds, and warm summers that tend towards the muggy side. Fall is typically quite pleasant, and spring brings with it the expected rains.
How do I get around town?
A number of railways call the city home, including the Metra that flows all the way to Chicago. Amtrak is also available, running all the way to Texas, while city bus service is likewise easy to find. O'Hare Airport in Chicago is a short drive away, and while most residents of apartments in Joliet rely upon a personal auto for most travel needs, taxis and ride-sharing services are popular alternatives.
What is the Joliet commute like?
The railways provide a major source of commuting for most traveling to the job market of Chicago. I-80 and I-55 act as the major roadways in and around the city, both seeing their fair share of construction and peak-commute delays, while lesser roads such as the Lincoln Highway and U.S. Highway 6 both criss-cross the city proper.
What are the local media outlets?
" The 'Herald-News' provides much of the regional print coverage for Joliet, while the 'Chicago Tribune' is easily found as well. Radio is widespread in formats ranging from talk to classical, including popular stations such as WSSR and WLRA, while most major broadcasting networks are found with ease as well."
Why live in Joliet, IL?
Home to an ever-growing economic base focused upon the health care industry and the thriving casino influx, Joliet is an ideal place for both work and play. Close enough to the Chicago lights without sacrificing the quaint Illinois charm that draws so many to the rest of the state, this is one charming destination that is sure to hit the mark on many levels.
What Joliet landmarks should I see?
The Jacob Henry Mansion dates all the way back to the 1800s, as does the famed Auditorium Building, which acted as the site for a noted speech by Theodore Roosevelt. The Rialto Square Theatre continues to present stage shows and select films, while the Route 66 Visitor's Center pays homage to the legendary stretch of U.S. roadway.
What is there to do around Joliet?
Try your luck at one of the several casinos that line the city limits, or get familiar with the local heritage at the Joliet Area Historical Museum. Go 9 holes at the Inwood Golf Course, or get wet and wild with a visit to Splash Station Water Park. For the nature lover residing in Joliet apartments, the region is flush with a number of hiking and biking trails as well.
Any annual festivals or Joliet events to know?
Nearby Chicago is home to a huge array of music festivals such as Lollapalooza and Riot Fest, while the city proper hosts the popular Haunted Trails every Halloween season. Taste of Joliet is a fantastic event each June for foodies, and the County Celtic Fest offers live music and crafts in a family-friendly setting.
Where are the nearby vacation spots?
Hit the road for some famous cheese curds in the great state of Wisconsin, or enjoy a camping adventure in one of the many grounds located across Illinois. Of course, Chicago is right around the corner, complete with that legendary pizza and an eye-popping assortment of museums and nightlife options.
Where is the best place to move in Joliet?
The west side of the city is ideal for those working at the primary employer, the local hospital, and a large swath of economic Joliet apartments can be found close to the I-80 onramp, making an ideal spot for Chicago commuters. Whether you are in the market for a luxurious rooftop spread complete with onsite gym and covered parking, or simply yearn for a family-friendly rental close to area schools, odds are great the perfect Joliet apartment is out there waiting for you. Good luck with your search, and welcome to the great state of Illinois!
