Decatur, home to about 70,000 people, is the seat of Macon County in central Illinois and is known as the Soybean Capital of the World. ADM's North American headquarters and large processing complex, Tate & Lyle and Caterpillar's plant make agribusiness and manufacturing the backbone of the local economy.
Millikin University and Richland Community College bring students, Decatur Memorial Hospital and HSHS St. Mary's are major employers, and Lake Decatur and Scovill Zoo draw families. I-72 runs along the north side of the city and US-51 and US-36 cross it, so billboards here reach plant workers, commuters and travelers between Springfield, Champaign and Bloomington.
