Suburban Commuter Family-Friendly Great Schools

Situated along Interstate 90 around 50 miles outside Downtown Chicago, Huntley provides a top-notch suburban experience for anyone looking for space or quiet outside the hustle and bustle of the Windy City. Great schools, plentiful green space, and plentiful home and apartment offerings serve to make Huntley one of the more popular suburban areas in this part of Illinois, particularly with families.

Huntley Grove is the center of shopping and dining options, but there are more to be found off of Illinois State Route 47 and in surrounding neighborhoods like Lakewood.
