About Student Housing in Normal
Normal, IL is a central Illinois college town that, with neighboring Bloomington, forms the Twin Cities, and Illinois State University is its beating heart. ISU's 850-acre campus sits right beside Uptown Normal, a walkable, redeveloped district built around a circular plaza, the Amtrak station, and a run of shops, restaurants, and a farmers market. Students get an easygoing, low-key Midwest base with serious upside: the 45-mile Constitution Trail threads through town for biking and running, public parks are plentiful, and Uptown stays busy with civic events and festivals. Chicago and St. Louis are both a straightforward Amtrak ride away, so when you want a bigger city, the train is right there in Uptown.
