About Lomax
Lomax is a quiet village tucked into western Illinois, just a few miles east of the Mississippi River along Route 96. The community got its start as a lively railroad stop in the late 1800s, with an ambitious history that once included an early airplane maker and a busy tomato cannery. Today, it offers a relaxed, small-town pace, with Dallas City about six miles down the road right on the riverbank.
Route 96 makes daily travel simple, connecting residents to neighboring farming communities and river crossings into Iowa for work or shopping trips. Local students attend Dallas Elementary and Illini West High School. It makes for a down-to-earth community framed by open farmland, quiet neighborhood streets, and the low-lying country just off the Mississippi.
