Peoria woman highlights historic homes, recruits residents with TikTok


PEORIA — Though she's not originally from Peoria, Angie Ostaszewski has become one of the city’s greatest cheerleaders. 
Ostaszewski has been promoting Peoria online for a few years now, but it’s only been in the past year, since she began using TikTok, that she's started seeing tangible results. She said she knows of more than 20 people who have moved to Peoria after learning about the city from her TikTok account, a social media platform that has grown in popularity over the past year or so.
Most of Ostaszewski’s TikTok videos feature houses on the market in Peoria. Her cut-out head floats around the screen over photos from listings of homes.
