The population was 4,122 at the 2010 census, with a 1925 peak of 8,000. Although the city's name is spelled as if it were Spanish, the name was originally "Elder-Reado"—a combination of the last names of the town's two founders,[2] Judge Samuel Elder and Joseph Read. According to legend, a signpainter for the railroad painted the name "Eldorado" on the train depot; as a result, the spelling and pronunciation was forever changed. Eldorado is included in the Illinois–Indiana–Kentucky tri-state area and is a bedroom community in the Harrisburg micropolitan statistical area.[3] History{{Refimprove section|date=April 2012}}In September, 1963, five months before The Beatles' first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show brought them stardom in the United States, George Harrison performed at the Veterans of Foreign Wars hall in Eldorado with a local band called The Four Vests. This was the first performance by a Beatle in the United States. At the time, Harrison and his brother were visiting their sister, Louise, who had recently relocated with her husband to nearby Benton.[4][5] At one time there was an extensive maze of railroad tracks that arched out from the town's center. All but one are now replaced with bike trails. In 1946, the adjacent village of Beulah Heights disincorporated and annexed to Eldorado.[6] Eldorado was a sundown town until the sign was removed in the 1960s. GeographyEldorado is located at {{Coord|37|48|51|N|88|26|27|W|type:city}} (37.814212, -88.440937).[7] According to the 2010 census, Eldorado has a total area of {{convert|2.431|sqmi|sqkm|2}}, of which {{convert|2.39|sqmi|sqkm|2}} (or 98.31%) is land and {{convert|0.041|sqmi|sqkm|2}} (or 1.69%) is water.[8] The junction of the pioneer Kaskaskia and Goshen Trails was located just south of the city. The Goshen Trail began in Old Shawneetown, Illinois and ran along the east side of Eldorado and on to the Goshen Settlement, a community near the present day East St. Louis.

MediaEldorado used to have the smallest daily newspaper in Illinois until recently when declining circulation and advertising revenue for the Daily Journal forced its parent company to scale back publication to only three days per week. The Journal had been a daily paper since 1911. Health careIn 1925, Dr. J.V. Ferrell founded Ferrell Hospital, which exists today as a 52-bed facility operated by Southern Illinois Healthcare. Effective March 1, 2004, SIH entered into an agreement with Alliant Management Services to return the hospital to local ownership and governance. On April 1, 2005, Ferrell Hospital Community Foundation became a stand-alone facility managed by Alliant Management Services. As Ferrell is a small hospital, services are routinely provided via other hospitals by transportation via ambulance for non-critical issues, and Air Evac Lifeteam Air Ambulance (for transport to Evansville, IN hospitals Deaconess, or St. Mary's) for critical emergencies. Although, Ferrell Hospital employees are very knowledgeable and can diagnose many illnesses, the facility simply lacks those provided by, for example, many Level 1 Trauma Hospitals.{{Citation needed|date=April 2012}} SportsEldorado holds a few records within the Illinois High School Association (IHSA). Two all-time scorers Mike Duff (2,113 points) and Cody Lane (2,006 points) grew up here, and Roger Grumley and Eric Brannock of the Illinois Basketball Coaches Association Hall of Fame were born in Eldorado.{{Citation needed|date=April 2012}} References1. ^{{cite web|title=2016 U.S. Gazetteer Files|url=https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/gazetteer/2016_Gazetteer/2016_gaz_place_17.txt|publisher=United States Census Bureau|accessdate=Jun 29, 2017}} 2. ^{{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9V1IAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA116#v=onepage&q&f=false | title=The Origin of Certain Place Names in the United States | publisher=Govt.
