Plainfield, Township in Will County, Illinois
Located between Naperville and Joliet, Plainfield Township covers 35 square miles of land with residential neighborhoods and commercial districts along Route 30.
Established in 1849, the area transformed from Potawatomi settlements to European-American development after James Walker built the first mission in 1826.
The township maintains Settlers' Park, which hosts summer concerts and community gatherings that bring together residents from Plainfield, Joliet, and Romeoville.
The township government operates a senior shuttle service and maintains 44 miles of roads connecting residential areas to shopping centers and public facilities.
A 1990 tornado reshaped the township's development, leading to modern infrastructure improvements and expanded residential communities across the region.
