About New Berlin

Sitting about fifteen minutes west of Springfield, New Berlin is a quiet village with deep agricultural roots and a classic small-town feel. It got its start in the 1830s along the railroad line, but today it is best known for hosting the lively Sangamon County Fair every summer. People move here for the open space, friendly neighbors, and solid local schools, all while keeping a quick commute into the state capital for work and dining.
