Why Live in Alton

Alton, Illinois, is a riverside town located about 25 miles north of St. Louis, known for its rich history and ongoing revitalization efforts. The downtown area features century-old brick streets and storefronts, reflecting its past as a significant 19th-century port. The city is home to a variety of historic houses, including colonial and Victorian styles, with many properties dating back to the 19th century. Homebuyers can also find midcentury bungalows and ranch-style houses. Alton's affordability is a notable draw, with homes selling for significantly less than the national average. Major employers include Olin Corporation, Wieland Rolled Products, and Alton Memorial Hospital. The Alton Community Unit School District serves 5,700 students across 11 campuses, while Marquette Catholic High School is highly rated. Alton Works is actively revitalizing the downtown area, focusing on arts, innovation, and entertainment. Local attractions include Riverfront Park, which hosts events like the Alton Jazz & Wine Festival, and Henry Street Park, home to the Alton Farmers & Artisans Market. Gordon F. Moore Community Park offers extensive recreational space, including the Spencer T. Olin Golf Course. The YWCA Southwestern Illinois provides indoor recreation options. Alton's proximity to St. Louis, accessible via U.S. Route 67 and Amtrak, adds to its appeal. Crime rates have decreased in recent years, with efforts to reduce youth violence contributing to a safer environment compared to the national average.
