Located just 60 miles from Chicago, the Kankakee River Valley is separated from urban life by more than 30 miles of open prairie and is home to Kankakee River State Park. From its agricultural roots to its strong manufacturing base, Kankakee County embraces sustainability and offers economic incentives such as international trade assistance, technology support and workforce development programs. Olivet Nazarene University and Kankakee Community College draw students to the main cities of Bourbonnais and Kankakee, while historical allures include a variety of museums and the only two side-by-side Frank Lloyd Wright homes in the world.
