Situated 13 miles northwest of Downtown Chicago, Elmwood Park is a great place to find affordable apartments, friendly neighbors, and family-friendly streets. Though a bustling urban area, Elmwood Park stands true to its name by housing multiple community parks.
The Oak Park County Club is a luxurious attraction in the area and the perfect place to tee off on a sunny afternoon. What really defines this neighborhood is its locally owned restaurants. These local spots keep this community thriving with a family-friendly atmosphere and various types of cuisine to try. If you really want to feel like a local, grab a dog at Johnnie’s Beef, a famous hot dog stand on North Avenue.
If commuting is a concern for you, there are public bus stations throughout the city, along with a Metra rail station to make commuting a breeze. Not to mention Elmwood Park is located just nine miles southeast of the O’Hare International Airport.
