Mount Auburn unfolds across the gently rolling terrain of Christian County, a place where the horizon stretches wide and the sky feels like a vast, permeable dome. It lies 17.1 miles west-south-west of Decatur, IL (from Decatur, IL: bearing 253°T), and is situated 6.1 miles south of Illiopolis.

For generations, the rich soil has been the bedrock of Mount Auburn's economy, yielding bountiful harvests that have sustained families and communities.
