Located in west central Illinois, Adams County provides citizens
with opportunity, diversity, and quality. Most of the
residents live in or near the City of Quincy, while most of the
land is used for agriculture. The county is on the banks
of the Mississippi River. Quincy is the regional hub
for medical services, manufacturing, entertainment, and
education. As the largest city within a 100 miles, Quincy
provides the entire county with some of the amenities of larger
cities. And several smaller communities compliment Quincy
by offering superb quality of life in rural settings.
The courthouse was constructed in 1950, but an
extensive renovation project was completed in 1997.
Visitors to the east side of the building must pass
through a security checkpoint and abide by certain
rules. Cell phones are not allowed.
In addition to several offices, there are eight
courtrooms, backup 9-1-1 Center and a 100-bed jail in
the building.
The Health Department is
located just one block from the courthouse in downtown
Quincy. This building was built in 2009. The
Ambulance Department has an administrative office in
this building also.
The Quincy / Adams County 9-1-1 Center began operations
in a new facility in March, 2007. The Emergency
Management office is located here along with the
Emergency Operations Center.
The Juvenile Detention Center
was built in 2000. The Juvenile Detention Facility
provides detention services and behavioral programming
for troubled youth from ages ten through seventeen. This

The Highway Department moved from 36th and Broadway to
101 N 54th St in 1986.
