Apartments for Rent in Sterling IL - 45 Rentals

Sterling, IL Apartments for Rent

On the north bank of the Rock River in northwest Illinois sits Sterling, a colorful suburb with a laidback, family-friendly atmosphere. Beautiful homes and apartment rentals overlook the river in south Sterling, with more residential developments stretching north towards Lynn Boulevard. Lincoln Highway is where you’ll find incredible dining and shopping options just steps from the water. Sterling also has a great number of community parks for residents to enjoy, including Central Park, Dale Park, Flock Park, and Sinnissippi Park.

Sterling remains relatively secluded amongst the small towns that line the riverbanks. Moline sits 56 miles west, and Rockford nearly the same distance northeast. Neither are out of reach if you’re in search of a fun weekend or day trip. But with Sterling’s fantastic waterfront views and eclectic downtown area, why leave?
