Johnstown is a small place in Cumberland County, Illinois, in the United States. It is known as an unincorporated community. This means it's a settlement that doesn't have its own local government like a city or town. Instead, it's usually governed by the county.
Johnstown is located about 6.5 miles (10.5 km) north-northwest of a town called Toledo. A cool fact about Johnstown is that it's the oldest settlement in Cumberland County, Illinois. This means it was one of the very first places where people settled down and built homes in that area.
