Why Live in Near West

Near West in Decatur is a neighborhood that balances historical charm with suburban tranquility. Located between downtown Decatur and the city's outskirts, it features historic homes along red brick roads and shaded sidewalks lined with tall trees. The area is primarily homebuyer-focused, with fewer rental units compared to neighborhoods east of downtown. Despite the proximity of a train track, noise is minimal, and the neighborhood remains peaceful, especially along the Sangamon River to the south. Schools are within walking distance, and bike paths connect residents to popular parks like Lincoln Park and Fairview Park, which offer fishing, hiking, and various recreational facilities. Millikin University, just north of Near West, adds an academic presence with its notable programs and historic James Millikin Homestead. The neighborhood's residential streets showcase a variety of home styles, including Victorian mansions, Colonial Revivals, ranch-style homes, bungalows, and Dutch-inspired cottages. Coffee lovers frequent The River Coffee Company, while The Winery Bar provides a cozy spot for burgers and pints. Although there are no markets within the neighborhood, grocery stores and pharmacies are within a short drive. Near West is quieter than downtown, with occasional flooding near the river and creeks. Illinois Route 48 and local bus routes provide connectivity, with St. Mary's Hospital 2.5 miles southeast and the nearest major airport 42 miles west in Springfield.
