Unique Small-Town Feel
What traditionally marks the character of America, is its small towns and the people who inhabit them. Small-town America fosters a unique sense of place, evoking images of kids riding bicycles on tree-lined streets, homespun parades and neighbors who know each other by name. St. John, Indiana is just such a place.
Located a mere 24 miles southeast of Chicago, St. John offers quality schools and churches, an impressive mix of well-maintained homes and neighborhoods, and a wide variety of community activities for everyone. Sidewalks and homes with front porches encourage strolling and talking with neighbors in this quiet, low-crime community in northwest Indiana.
Home to over 13,000 people, St. John continues to maintain its charm in the face of continued growth and rising entrepreneurial spirit. With easy access to major highways, it is a short drive to all that Chicago has to offer yet far enough away to enjoy Sunday morning farmer’s market in Community Park, the annual Corn Roast, St. John Town Festival, the holiday Festival of Lights in the park, breakfast with Santa, and a variety of parks and recreation activities for all ages.
