HistoryTaylorville was known (in the early to mid-1990s) to have had a high rate of neuroblastoma, a cancer affecting the adrenal gland and striking children.[4] The local power company Central Illinois Public Service Company was sued and lost for contaminating the groundwater in 1994.[5] Some outer homes and a business in Taylorville were damaged by an F1 tornado on April 2, 2006. On August 11, 2012, a Beechcraft Model 18 airplane crashed into a residential area of Taylorville, killing the pilot but injuring none on the ground.[6] A subsequent NTSB investigation into the accident concluded that an improper flap configuration and failure to maintain the correct airspeed due to pilot error, resulted in the crash.[7] At about 5:15 PM on December 1, 2018, as part of the December 2018 tornado outbreak, a strong tornado hit Taylorville.[8][9] The tornado injured at least 26 residents and damaged more than 600 homes and businesses, 34 of which were completely destroyed.[10] Damage surveys by the National Weather Service rated the tornado as an EF3 with winds over {{convert|150|mph|km/h|abbr=on}}.[11] Taylorville is known as the "Christmas Capital of Illinois."
