Why Live in Mount Vernon

Mount Vernon, Illinois, located at the intersection of Interstates 64 and 57 in South Central Illinois, is a small city with a population of around 15,000. The city is home to SSM Health Good Samaritan Hospital, which offers specialized heart and cancer care, eliminating the need for residents to travel to Springfield or St. Louis for treatment. Major employers in Mount Vernon include Continental Tire and Walgreens, both operating factories in the area. The downtown area features the historic 5th District Appellate Court building, where Abraham Lincoln once argued cases, and the Jefferson County Historical Village, an outdoor museum showcasing 19th-century life. The Granada Theatre, a renovated 1937 landmark, hosts concerts and weddings, while Veterans Memorial Park offers recreational activities such as tennis, frisbee golf, and the Aquatic Zoo water park with its slides and lazy river. Market Days at Veterans Memorial Park is a popular monthly event from May through September, featuring a flea market and vendor fair.
