Quiet bedroom community west of Chicago
Balancing both country-style living and urban resources, Bloomingdale has figured out how to keep its bearing in both worlds. Despite a spike in growth during the 1950s — a popular era for people to settle down outside of Chicago — it’s maintained its natural flair through numerous town parks and surrounding forest preserves. “It’s a quaint village situated in a great location, where you can easily access larger towns and amenities like O’Hare,” says Cindy Banks, a local broker and owner of Re/Max Cornerstone.
Nowadays, Bloomingdale has grown to over 22,000 people. In addition to those commuting into Chicago along Interstate 290, local businesses like PCTEL and Now Health Group employ a large portion of Bloomingdale's population.

Getting around the greater Bloomingdale area
Interstate 290 connects the 27 miles to Chicago. Chicago O’Hare Airport is about 20 miles east, while Midway Airport is about 30 miles south. Bloomingdale doesn’t have a Metra train into downtown Chicago, but there are stops in neighboring villages Roselle and Glen Ellyn. Locally, the Pace bus has routes throughout the village and service to the nearby Meta stations. There are multiple nearby hospitals, including Northwestern Medicine Central DuPage and Adventist Glen Oaks. “With all the highways and public transportation, our area really is ideal for someone who wants a quiet but centrally located place,” Banks says.
Springfield Park is the largest in the district
The Bloomingdale Park District oversees 18 parks and facilities throughout the city, so nearly every neighborhood has a small park. The largest is Springfield Park, which includes 1.1 miles worth of walking trails, 20 acres of wetlands, and the village’s youth baseball complex and soccer fields. Bloomingdale Golf Club offers public tee times on its 62,000-yard 18-hole course. Numerous forest preserves also surround the village, from the flatlands at East Branch to fishable waters at Mallard Lake. Throughout the year, but especially in the colder months, the Johnston Recreation Center hosts programming and classes and is the district’s parks and rec headquarters.
Bloomingdale has warm and humid summers, that give way to frigid winters that can accumulate over 33 inches of snow annually. Flooding can also be an issue, but the village has the Armstrong Park Reservoir and the Elmhurst Quarry Flood Control Facility to mitigate the risk.
