Aurora, known as the "City of Lights," is Illinois' second-largest city and one of the most vibrant mid-sized communities in the Chicagoland area, with a rich manufacturing heritage, a thriving arts and cultural scene anchored by the Paramount Theatre, and easy I-88 access to Chicago and the broader Fox Valley corridor.
