Geneva has an active historical society, the Geneva History Center, located in downtown Geneva as well the Fabyan Windmill, an old Dutch windmill dating back to the 1850s. Geneva is part of a tri-city area, along with St. Charles, Illinois and Batavia, Illinois. The area is currently experiencing a high level of population growth as Chicago's urban sprawl spreads farther west. Once considered one of Chicago's farthest west suburbs, Geneva is now becoming less so as farther west suburban locales such as LaFox and Elburn quickly develop.

The city is home to the Kane County Cougars baseball club of the Midwest League.
