Life at a Different Pace
 Whether you’re talking about the beautiful four-season scenery, the excellent quality of life, the wonderful family environment and community pride or the rich history and culture, the greater Aurora, Illinois area and surrounding Fox River Valley is a place with a pace all its own.
 Not far away from the excitement and energy of Chicago, it’s a community that continues to grow and prosper, yet the timeless spirit continues to remain the same. From the historic Paramount Theatre, which is still a bustling local culture center to the world-class golf courses, water parks, museums, nature trails and ski slopes throughout the Valley, there’s never a shortage of things to keep you making the most of life.
“Aur-iginal” Style
Aurora was founded in 1837 by Joseph and Samuel McCarty, who named it after a city in their native state, New York. It is also known as “The City of Lights.” Located in the fertile Fox Valley the town grew quickly with settlers from the east. Aurora had everything the settlers could dream of - fresh water, game for hunting, lumber for building and a burgeoning population to trade with.
 Aurora’s population has grown to over 160,000, with a total of almost 350,000 people living in a 10 mile radius of greater Aurora. The city now boasts retail sales around a billion dollars annually and growing. The city was even immortalized in the Saturday Night Live sketches and “Wayne’s World” movies.
