    Moving to the Chicago suburbs

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hey i just got a job out in Hoffman Estates, I used to live in the city but not too familiar with the northwest suburbs. I know there is a lot to do in Schaumburg but was wondering about a few other suburbs....

    What does everyone think of Paletine, Arlington Heights, Elk Grove Village???
    just a few places that im looking at for apartments. Im right out of college so i want to be able to meet people and have things to do..

    any help would be great. thanks!

    Re: Moving to the Chicago suburbs

    schaumburg is a good area, near everything. Elk grove is a good and quite area. Hoffman estates is good depending on where you go to. Palatine and arlington heights are also nice.
    But i would prolly stay in schaumburg or elk grove

    Re: Moving to the Chicago suburbs

    i was hoping to pay a little less than i did when living in lincoln park but anywhere decent in schaumburg is around 900 for a 1 bedroom. it looks like if i go more north or east it gets a little cheaper.

    Re: Moving to the Chicago suburbs

    I live in Glendale heights, which is near Lombard. I would stay away from Dupage county. Im paying 1200 for a 2bedroom ~1100 sq ft. I've looked in schaumburg too and it was quite high. You either have to go further north from schaumburg or way way farther south to find something cheap. Me and my roomate are just thinking of buying a condo instead now since mortgage would be less than what we are paying for rent.

    I don't live in Chicago, but I've been to Heat out there in Schaumburg, not a bad little joint. You've got Accent Cafe up in Wheeling, which is like what? 20 minutes away?
