Illinois land real estate

Illinois land overview

With its diversity in geography, economy, demographics, and culture, Illinois is often thought of as a small United States within the United States. Northern Illinois is dominated by the major city of Chicago, although the Northwest includes a more rugged landscape of hills and valleys called the Driftless Plains. Much of the central part of the state features small industrial cities and relatively flat farmland acreage and is the reason Illinois is one of the nation's leading agricultural producers, especially of corn, soybeans, and wheat. Southern Illinois, also known as "Little Egypt," is comprised of the Shawnee Hills and a small portion of the Gulf Coastal Plain. If you're a hunter, you may know Illinois because of its Golden Triangle—Adams, Brown, and Pike counties. This area is famous for some of the world's best trophy whitetail deer hunting. You can frequently find available timberland, agricultural property, and hunting land in Illinois.
