State Street Rockford, IL 61104 Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area FY 2020-2024 DRAFT BERKELEY COUNTY City of Rockford, Illinois INTRODUCTION The City of Rockford is a City located in Winnebago County in far northern Illinois. The City is located on the banks of the Rock River; it is the County seat of Winnebago County and a small portion of the City is located in Ogle County. Rockford is the third- largest city in the state; settled in the mid-1830’s, its position on the Rock River made its location strategic for industrial development. In the second half of the 19th century Rockford was known for its output in heavy machinery, hardware, and tools. By the 20th century the city was the second leader center of furniture manufacturing in the nation and the 94th largest City in the United States. Since the late 1990’s economic diversification led to growth in automotive, aerospace, and healthcare industries along with and undertaking in efforts in tourism and downtown revitalization. The twenty-first century has marked a period of economic challenges for the Rockford region. With its economy predominately based on manufacturing, the city has been affected by the deindustrialization of the Rust Belt. In the early 2000’s efforts began to reverse urban blight of the downtown Rockford area which began as early as the 1960’s. Prior to the onset of the Great Recession housing in Rockford was affected by catastrophic weather events. Keith Creek saw detrimental flooding events that damaged hundreds of older homes in the area which many, to this day, remain as greenspace as the creek is reconstructed.
