Small, clearings and the occasional pond catch the sky, reflecting its vast, ever-changing moods. The story of Westmont is one of growth and adaptation, tracing its roots back to the late 19th century as a planned community for those seeking respite from the burgeoning industrial centers. Its economy, once tethered to the agricultural bounty of the surrounding prairie, has diversified, now embracing a blend of retail, professional services, and a skilled workforce that commutes to larger metropolitan areas. A notable feature is the vibrant downtown district, a testament to ongoing revitalization efforts, where locally owned businesses thrive alongside newer establishments, fostering a sense of neighborly commerce.
