Things to do in Peoria
Peoria grew up on the Illinois River as a manufacturing town, and it remains closely tied to Caterpillar, which was headquartered here for decades and still runs major engineering and manufacturing operations in the region. Healthcare has become just as important: OSF HealthCare is based in Peoria, and the city’s hospitals and the University of Illinois College of Medicine Peoria make it the medical center for much of central Illinois. Bradley University and a federal agricultural research lab, where scientists developed mass production of penicillin during World War II, round out the economy.
