Come and Discover Blue Island

Imagine finding a place in Chicago's Southland where people share a sense of community. Schools offering both traditional and innovative programs...opportunities for young and old...a historic place where businesses thrive.

The city that began as a way station for Chicago travelers in 1835 has kept its small-town charm and matured into a vibrant, diverse community.

The city's public safety, 24-hour fire protection and emergency medical services are among the best in the southwest suburbs. A regional 911 system coordinates emergency response for the city and surrounding suburbs. The Blue Island Public Library, operating since 1891, offers many special programs throughout the year and houses the Blue Island Historical Society Museum.
