About Paloma

Paloma is a tiny, peaceful community of around 100 people set among the farm fields of Adams County in western Illinois. Located along U.S. Route 24, it originally grew around a 19th-century railroad depot that locals fondly called Pickleville due to its cucumber farms. Today, life here is quiet and wide open, giving residents a relaxed rural setting with an easy 15-minute drive to shopping, dining, and jobs in nearby Quincy.
