Aurora
About 180,000 people.
Aurora is the second-largest city in Illinois and is known as the City of Lights because it was one of the first cities to use electric street lights. It sits along the pretty Fox River.
You can catch a show at the beautiful old Paramount Theatre, learn about space and science at the SciTech Hands On Museum, or stroll along the Fox River trails.
