Yep, it is strange the reputation that Illinois has acquired just in the last 10 years. When i was growing up there in the 70s, you just didn't see that many. Some of the local landowners will have people show up on their doorstep looking to lease land. One of my cousins was offered something like 5K to lease one of his 120 acre patches. When folks get that kind of money waved in their face, you can expect to see Posted signs going up all over.
