Why Live in Marion

Marion, Illinois, a small city in Southern Illinois, is known as the "Oasis of Opportunity." Located at the junction of Interstate 57 and Illinois Route 13, Marion serves as a key regional hub with a stable population of around 17,000 residents. The city has seen significant revitalization, particularly in its historic downtown square, which now hosts various businesses, including a brewery and music venue set to open in 2026. The Marion Cultural and Civic Center, built on the site of the old Orpheum Theatre, is a focal point for local and touring performances. Marion's economy benefits from major employers like Aisin Manufacturing, a Pepsi bottling plant, and the Marion United States Penitentiary. The city is also home to the only Veterans Affairs Hospital within a 45-mile radius. For recreation, Marion is within a 30-minute drive of Rend Lake, Crab Orchard Lake, and Lake of Egypt, attracting boating and fishing enthusiasts. Shawnee National Forest and several state parks offer additional outdoor activities. The Marion Park District manages nearly a dozen parks, including Pyramid Park with its Pharaoh’s Way Disc Golf Course and Ray Fosse Park, named after the local baseball legend. Marion Community Unit School District No. 2 is highly rated, with Marion High School featuring modern facilities. The city also hosts various events, such as the Third Thursday celebrations and Very Merry Marion in December. Despite its warmer climate, Marion is prone to volatile spring weather, including tornadoes, with a notable EF4 tornado in 1982 memorialized in the city's square.
