About Champaign |
About Champaign The twin cities of Champaign-Urbana, founded in 1833, are nestled amid the farms and prairies of America’s heartland, yet they are within a 3-hour drive of Chicago, Indianapolis, and St. Louis. Commercial airline service via the University’s Willard Airport (CMI) provides links to destinations throughout the world. Home to the flagship campus of the University of Illinois, one of the nation’s top-ranked research institutions, Champaign-Urbana combines the cultural resources of a large metropolitan town and the charm, friendliness, and affordability of classic Midwestern living. The university’s cultural attractions include a performing arts center that draws internationally renowned artists, as well as art and world history museums. With a population of 100,000, the community boasts a wide range of ethnic restaurants, specialty stores, coffee houses, clubs and live music venues, movie theaters, athletic facilities, galleries, and bookstores. June weather ranges from mid 60°F in evenings to 80°F in the daytime, with showers possible.
