Things to do in Bloomington

Bloomington and its twin town Normal form one of the most white-collar communities in downstate Illinois. State Farm is headquartered here and is by far the largest employer, and Country Financial is also based in town. Illinois State University and Illinois Wesleyan University bring students, faculty and visitors, and the former Mitsubishi plant in Normal now builds electric vehicles for Rivian, which has added engineering and manufacturing traffic to the area’s mix of insurance, education and agriculture.
