Additional Chicago Illinois Real Estate and Relocation Information

Known to many as "The Second City," Chicago is actually the third largest city in America with 2,722,562 people in the city proper, and over 9 million in the "Chicagoland" area. With 22 miles of beachfront on Lake Michigan within the city limites, the Chicago river running through the city center, and 7,300 acres of city-owned parks, Chicago boasts the best of all worlds - big city life with lots of waterfront, greenery, zoos, museums and top-notch public transportation to get you there.

Chicago's real estate includes urban condos and lofts, town homes and single family homes, as well as multitudes of suburban real estate offerings. Chicago truly offers something for everyone in real estate, from luxury real estate along the lakeshore and in the downtown area to ideal choices for first time homebuyers in less expensive, yet very attractive areas.

Among Chicago's suburbs are some of the most desirable areas to live in all of America. Included are Lake Forest, Wheeling and Mundelein to the north. Northwest of the city is Schaumburg, and to the west is Naperville, one of America's fastest growing areas. Park Forest, Homewood and South Holland are also areas outside the city that are much sought after.

The Chicago new home market continues to boom, with single family and town home units rising up all over the city. Chicago condos continue to sell as well, from converted 3 flats to high-rise buildings. With the economy continuing to grow, relocations to Chicago from other cities, along with empty-nest baby boomers moving back to the city from area suburbs, are encouraging an active real estate market. The suburbs of the city also are growing at a fast rate, offering access to big city amenities and job opportunities, with quality suburban communities.*
