Blackberry Countryside - Aurora, IL

Area Guide

Share Guide

Located four miles northwest of downtown Aurora, the Blackberry Countryside neighborhood gives country living a good name. Agricultural properties stretch out across the flat terrain on the district's western side, leaving the eastern portion for residential purposes. Narrow, tree-lined lanes wind through the rural areas at the fringes of farmland, and young subdivisions with fresh, green landscaping and spacious properties add a modern, upscale vibe. Look for houses for rent along the eastern edge of the neighborhood.

Locals absolutely love the close proximity to the Aurora West Forest Preserve. This nature preserve covers more than 700 acres in the northwest of the district, providing visitors with hiking trails, off-leash dog zones, canoe launches, and golf courses. For shopping expeditions, Blackberry Countryside residents hit the road. A 20-minute drive takes them to the Chicago Premium Outlets Mall for retail therapy, dining out, and going for a spin around the skating pond.
