The city of Joliet is located 40 miles southwest of Chicago. It holds the county seat of Will County and is also incorporated in Kendall County. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 106,221. A special census conducted in 2006 pegged the city's population at a certified 145,803. Joliet is currently the fastest-growing city in the Midwest and the 14th-fastest-growing city in the United States among cities larger than 100,000 people. Joliet was first settled as a town in 1834 and originally bore the name Juliet [2]. Some historians believe the town was named Juliet in honor of settler James B. Campbell's daughter. Other possible sources of the name include the Shakespearean character (the nearby village of Romeoville was named as a companion; see Romeo and Juliet) or a corruption of the name of French Canadian explorer Louis Jolliet, who visited the area in 1673. The name was eventually changed to Joliet in his memory in 1845, and the city was incorporated in 1852. -- Source: Wikipedia.com
