Plato Township: Planning the Future, Preserving the Past
The rural tradition of our township endures, side-by-side with growth and development.![](/content/front/Image/landscape_3_a.jpg)
Founded in 1835, Plato Township's 36 square miles includes rolling farmland, country roads, and town centers, as well as residential subdivisions and commercial development.
Past and Present:
Plato Township began in the 1800's as a quiet farming community with approximately 200 residents. Today, Plato is a bustling suburban hub of northern Illinois.
