International food selections and mainstream retail in Aurora
Concentrated in the southwest quadrant of the Routes 30 and 59 interchange, the Far East community neighbors a large commercial district and hub of warehouses anchored by the Fox Valley Mall. The mall remains busy with traditional department stores such as Macy’s, JCPenney and Kohl’s and more than 120 stores and eateries. Even more shops and restaurants are outside the ring road circling the mall, including restaurants, supermarkets, big-box stores and specialty retailers. Qamaria Yemeni Coffee Company specializes in coffee and tea brewed with traditional methods from Yemen. One mainstay on the shop’s menu is qishr, a light and sweet drink made with coffee husks rather than the full bean. East China Inn is a local go-to for Chinese fare, with a full-service bar and wait staff for those dining in. For a distinctive spin on dessert cravings, there’s Juice Time on Route 59. This dessert shop originally started in Kuwait before coming stateside. It offers a broad menu of pressed juices, ice cream and pastries in a modern space with neon signage and a swing sofa. Photographers and creators can stock up on equipment at Procam Photo & Video Gear, while PM Music Center specializes in instrument rentals. Wide-ranging international food options surround the edges of the neighborhood, including Vai’s Italian Inspired Restaurant, a popular pick for wood-fired pizza and pasta dishes. For everyday needs and particular goods, big box stores such as Meijer, Aldi, and Whole Foods Market.

New traditional townhomes and houses near west Naperville
“You’ve got a mix of single-family homes and townhouses,” says Kristine Farra, the managing broker at Luxury Living International. Farra has sold homes in Naperville, Aurora and greater Chicago for more than 25 years. New traditional properties sit on cul-de-sacs and crescent roads with bumped-out corners. Concrete sidewalks and asphalt driveways visually separate the tightly cut front lawns. Most of the community was developed from the late 1980s to the 2020s. Townhouses and condos are the most plentiful home options, making up about two-thirds of the area’s market; single-family properties round out the available options. Vinyl siding, asphalt roofs, faux shutters, and bright trim are common elements, connecting the houses to earlier Craftsman and colonial styles. Single-family properties generally sell from $370,000 up to $1.2 million. Townhouses and condos range from about $138,000 to $590,000.
