Mason
6.3
High score (8-10)
Havana IL is a small river town on the Illinois River historically known for commercial fishing and waterfowl hunting — duck hunting specifically is a big draw in the surrounding wetlands. The county's population has been declining for decades and the social world is local.
Mid score (6-8) · Your profile
Mason County has some outdoor recreation economy around the Illinois River bottoms, which brings hunters and fishermen. But the permanent social scene is entirely local. The Sand Ridge State Forest and nearby wildlife areas attract some visitors.
Lower score (below 6)
Havana and Mason County are rural and declining. The economy is thin, the population is aging and shrinking, and the social world is built on longtime local networks. Nothing here for an outsider trying to establish a social life.
