Oakley is an unincorporated community in Oakley Township, Macon County, Illinois, United States.[1] Oakley is located along the Norfolk Southern Railway, 8miles east-northeast of Decatur. While now a sleepy, rural community with no commercial district, the town once featured two stores, a blacksmith shop, passenger rail station, school, church, lighted baseball field, and post office.[2] The church and post office are still standing, but are used for residential purposes. The Oakley Township Shed serves the surrounding Oakley Township. Clarkson Grain operates a grain elevator in the village.
The Village of Oakley was laid out in 1856 by William Rea following the laying of the first rails through the village in 1855.
