Just a short drive and an even shorter train ride outside of Chicago sits Riverside, a pleasant suburb known for its amazing architecture, colorful landscape, and active community. The town’s iconic water tower and township hall provide a glimpse into the area’s historic past, while town center provides incredible food, drinks, and entertainment for all to enjoy.
The Des Plaines River winds through Riverside, and there’s some amazing parks to enjoy along its banks. Riverside is aptly called “the village in the forest,” so along with the parks comes amazing landscaping and tree-lined streets throughout the area. Charming homes and apartments reflect the style of the overall neighborhood, and there are plenty of stylish rentals to go around. The Brookfield Zoo is just across the river, and Chicago is also close by, making Riverside perfect for families and professionals.

GreatSchools
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
