Boody offers wide-open skies, quiet roads, and quick access to both farm fields and city conveniences. Set along the U.S. 51 corridor, it’s minutes from the shopping, healthcare, and employers in Decatur, as well as the small-town amenities of Macon and Blue Mound in Macon County. Outdoor time is easy to come by, whether you’re casting a line or launching a kayak at the City’s beloved Lake Decatur, visiting the animals at Scovill Zoo, or spending an afternoon at the hands-on Children’s Museum of Illinois.
Nature lovers will find miles of prairie and woodland trails at the Rock Springs Conservation Area, plus birding, history exhibits, and family programs. For a different kind of adrenaline, summer Saturday nights roar to life at the dirt oval of Macon Speedway, a local tradition. Just east, the Fort Daniel Conservation Area offers quiet picnic spots, creek exploration, and seasonal wildflowers.
Families appreciate that Boody is served by Meridian Community Unit School District 15, known for close-knit campuses, competitive athletics, and robust FFA and fine arts opportunities. Daily routines are simple here: space for gardens and workshops at home, quick errands in nearby towns, and weekend play on trails, ballfields, or the lake.
