About Media
Media is a quiet, tiny village in western Illinois's Henderson County, sitting right along Route 116 between Biggsville and Roseville. Founded in the late 1880s, the town got its name because it was roughly midway between Chicago and Kansas City on the Santa Fe Railroad. Today, it is home to around 120 residents who enjoy open farmland, low traffic, and a tight-knit community feel. It's a peaceful rural spot where neighbors know one another, with neighboring towns providing easy access to schools, groceries, and everyday services.
