About Greenville

Greenville is a small town of roughly 7,000 residents in south-central Illinois, located about 50 miles east of St. Louis. As the Bond County seat, it centers around a historic courthouse square filled with local shops, small businesses, and seasonal community events. Greenville University adds energy to the area, bringing campus athletics, concerts, and arts to town. Thanks to Interstate 70 running right along the south edge of the community, getting on the road for a daily commute or a day trip is quick and simple.
