onald Reagan boyhood home where our 40th president spent a majority of his time growing up, the John Deere Historic Site, The Lincoln Monument in President's Park, and the Loveland Community House!

There are new job opportunities all the time here in Dixon, the community and involvement is great too! We have several different types of restaurants to choose from no matter what sounds good for dinner tonight! And the stores that we have give you the chance to truly find something that you won't find anywhere else!
