About Berlin

Berlin is a quiet rural village tucked into Sangamon County, home to roughly 140 residents. First settled in the 1830s, the community remained small and peaceful after the local railroad line was built two miles south, shifting most commercial growth to neighboring New Berlin. Today, Berlin is surrounded by central Illinois farmland, offering a calm, scenic atmosphere with plenty of space. It is a great fit for anyone seeking small-town simplicity while keeping Springfield’s jobs, shopping, and healthcare within an easy 20-minute drive.
