About Northwest Suburbs
The Northwest Suburbs spread out from O'Hare International Airport toward the rolling countryside around Barrington. Close to the city, compact villages like Norridge, Harwood Heights, Schiller Park and Franklin Park have a dense, neighborhood feel shaped by Harlem Avenue, Irving Park Road and the rail lines. Farther out, Des Plaines, Park Ridge, Mount Prospect and Arlington Heights grew along the Union Pacific Northwest Metra line, each with a downtown clustered near its station. Past them, Schaumburg, Hoffman Estates, Palatine, Streamwood and Hanover Park boomed from the 1950s through the 1990s, and the area around Woodfield Mall became one of the region's biggest shopping and job centers. At the far edge, Barrington, Inverness and South Barrington trade sidewalks for large lots and horse country. Busse Woods, Deer Grove and Poplar Creek forest preserves give residents plenty of room to hike, bike and fish.
- The Metra Union Pacific Northwest line links Des Plaines, Park Ridge, Mount Prospect, Arlington Heights, Palatine and Barrington to downtown Chicago.
- Most northwest suburbs buy Lake Michigan water through regional agencies, while Barrington-area villages like Inverness and South Barrington rely largely on private wells.
- Busse Woods, in the Ned Brown Forest Preserve near Elk Grove Village and Schaumburg, covers roughly 3,700 acres.
Homes & Appliances in Northwest Suburbs
Postwar construction defines much of the Northwest Suburbs. Thousands of ranches, split-levels and raised ranches went up in the 1950s through the 1970s, followed by two-story colonials, townhome complexes and condo buildings in the 1980s and 1990s. Closer to Chicago, brick bungalows and Cape Cods dominate. In the Barrington area, custom estate homes on acre-plus lots often have well water, softeners and multiple refrigerators. Many homes here are now on their second or third generation of appliances, and first-floor laundry rooms, garage freezers and builder-grade kitchens being upgraded to stainless are all common.
