Living in Morris means small town living at its very best. Our city offers its residents easy access to health care at Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers and outstanding education opportunities for our children in our local schools.
In addition, living in Morris also means a deep connection to our environment with our location along the Illinois River and the two state parks located within our city limits. Our YMCA and city parks offer a wide array of recreational activities for citizens of every age.

All of this brings us closer together as a community, and most importantly, as neighbors. I like to say, visit us for a day, and you will want to stay for life!
