Romeoville, Suburban village in Will County, Illinois, United States

Romeoville extends over 18.7 square miles of land and water, positioned 26 miles southwest of Chicago near the Des Plaines River and Gateway Wetlands.

The settlement began in 1835 on Isle a La Cache, a small island in the Des Plaines River, and changed its name from Romeo to Romeoville upon incorporation in 1895.

The population of 39,863 residents participates in regular community events including farmers markets, food drives, and seasonal celebrations throughout the year.

The village connects to major transportation routes through Interstate 55 and Interstate 355, providing direct access to Chicago and surrounding metropolitan areas.

The limestone quarries of Romeoville supplied the construction material for the Illinois State Capitol in Springfield, completed in 1888.
