The Clean City User Rating 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 10, 2018) I love the historical base that Zion Illinois holds within the city. Those who reside here enjoy a small community with a strong business base all while being backed by an unseen religious background. This is a city with a strong background.

Being a smaller city in the big state ...Read More of Illinois, Zion offers you a small dose of the city life without polluting the lifestyle in the larger areas. If your looking for order, this is a great place to be. Before the city was built, the entire city was planned out for the greatest efficiency. Houses face east and west to create lower need for utilities. Zion Illinois is a clean city and they pride themselves on keeping it this way.

A lot of parks are located in this city and are enjoyed by the residents. To relax, enjoy the most direct route to Illinois Beach State Park. Overall, living in Zion Illinois provides a peaceful atmosphere while still enjoying the city life. Read Less
