Taylorville, IL - City Review 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) I love living here. I can live in Taylorville, IL city for the rest of my life. The best areas in Taylorville is the excellent schools, accessible public transport, and relatively low rent. I enjoyed the peace from a friendly neighborhood, people in the city are very friendly and ...Read More easy to get along with. Despite being a small city, one can easily access the social amenities and other facilities needed.
The city is quite small and has limited amenities; there are few schools, hospitals and job opportunities. The small population is an advantage as there is a limited number of crime rates. Despite being a small city, it's a place where you can have relaxation and peace of mind.
There is promising future for this city as the expansion of commercial and industrial activities have been massive. The industries and business will create a variety of job opportunities for the residents living in Taylorville, IL city. The development will lead to more tourist visits and investments. Read Less
