Local Facts & Community Context for Effingham, IL
Understanding the local housing stock, population density, and municipal layout of Effingham (Effingham County) helps independent remediation contractors coordinate discreet arrival and efficient biohazard waste transport:
Effingham is a city in south-central Illinois and the county seat of Effingham County.
Effingham was first settled in 1814 and known as Broughton until 1859, when it became the county seat and government buildings were relocated from the now-deserted rival town of Ewington; the city was incorporated in 1861.
Effingham bills itself as the "Crossroads of Opportunity" because it sits at the intersection of Interstate 57, running from Chicago toward the Mississippi River, and Interstate 70, running from Utah to Maryland.
Effingham also lies on the historic National Road, today's U.S. Route 40, as well as U.S. Route 45 and Illinois Routes 32 and 33.
Effingham is a historic rail junction where the Illinois Central main line and the old Pennsylvania Railroad crossed downtown; Amtrak's City of New Orleans, Illini, and Saluki trains still stop there.
The 2020 census counted 12,252 people in Effingham, and the census counted 5,484 households in the city.
Effingham is famous for the Cross at the Crossroads, a 198-foot-tall steel cross with a 113-foot span built from over 180 tons of steel at a cost of more than $1 million and dedicated on September 16, 2001, beside the I-57/I-70 interchange.
The Cross at the Crossroads was the tallest cross in North America until Missouri's 218-foot Branson Cross was built in 2019, and its 198-foot height was chosen deliberately to stay just below the 200-foot threshold at which the FAA requires an aircraft warning light; the Cross Foundation estimates roughly 20 million people drive past it each year.
On April 4, 1949, St. Anthony's Hospital in Effingham caught fire and burned to the ground, killing 74 people; the nationally covered disaster led to improved fire codes nationwide, and donations to rebuild arrived from all 48 states and several foreign countries.
Effingham was once home to Austin College, which became the Illinois College of Photography, also known as Bissell College, before closing during the Great Depression in the 1930s.
