Montclare is located about 13 miles northwest of Downtown Chicago. This quiet neighborhood features 1930s bungalows, Tudor-style homes, apartments, and modern condos for rent. Montclare is quiet with a suburban feel, but residents appreciate having access to city conveniences like having several train stations that travel into the heart of Chicago. Montclare is also only nine miles from O’Hare International Airport, making traveling that much easier. Montclare residents have access to restaurants, big-box stores, grocers, and other establishments in the neighborhood. The neighborhood has several parks, but residents also flock to larger green spaces nearby like Jerome Huppert Woods and Schiller Woods for hiking and other outdoor activities. If you’re looking for a mix of suburban and city living, Montclare is a great choice.

I haven't experienced any major crime occurring in this neighborhood/area aside from maybe one robbery back in 2005 (neighbor's house was robbed).

There are two malls nearby. The Harlem Irving Plaza and The Brickyard Mall. Being malls, they have several different businesses which requires a need for workers. You just have to look around for openings.
