Kewanee is a typical Midwestern community built upon a great work ethic and neighborly ideals. The largest community in Henry County, it is strategically located an equal distance from the Peoria and Quad Cities metro areas. We offer a high quality of life for a very reasonable cost. Home to quality health care, public and private schools and Black Hawk College’s East Campus - Kewanee offers a full range of public services. Our park district is one of the largest in the state, and can boast of providing a full range of recreational opportunities for citizens of all ages.
Kewanee also welcomes new business and industry, and has worked hard to keep regulations business-friendly while providing incentive programs, including an Enterprise Zone and Tax Increment Financing Districts. The Kewanee Chamber of Commerce provides information to new residents and prospective businesses. The city has also partnered with the Kewanee Economic Development Corporation to secure land for two new industrial parks.
