Welcome to Village of Arrowsmith Village of Arrowsmith… A Great Place to Live!
We are a small rural community in eastern McLean County, Illinois with a deep history going back to the early days of the railroad and horse drawn plows. Founded in 1871, our background and history have always been that of a small, quiet, and safe community where friends stand and talk over fences and children come home when the street lights come on.
We hope you find the information on our site helpful and that you will take the opportunity to visit our community if you are passing through or looking for a place to call home.
