Villa Park IL- A Great Place to Live

Villa Park IL Village HallThe Village of Villa Park, for many years has been known as the “Garden Village”, because of the many gardens in the community and the Villa Park Garden Club.  The community is located approximately 15 miles west of downtown Chicago’s Loop.  We are close to shopping centers, casual and fine dining.

The Village has a Metro Station and is close to all major roadways and highways.  Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport is 7 miles northeast of the Village.

My family and I have lived in Villa Park for over 40 years.  Our children have attended the fine schools in the community and have enjoyed recreation in the various parks.

New Villa Park Area Real Estate Blog

Welcome to my new blog covering all things Villa Park including real estate and much more. Over the past 15 years as a  real estate agent in Chicago’s Western Suburbs, I’ve noticed a need for timely information about Villa Park and the surrounding areas but not many places to find it. Hopefully this blog fills that void.

You will be able to find a review of the local real estate markets, information about mortgage rates, maybe a restaurant review or two, fun things to do and much more.

I encourage you to comment and make suggestions on what you would like to see here.

Have a great 2011 and I will be talking to you.
