Schools that families love
“Our schools are another part of why people live here,” Bliss says. “We have a really great school system.” For kindergarten through 5th grade classes, students can attend Washington Elementary School, which earns a B on Niche. For grades 6 through 8, Bloomington Junior High School offers classes that count for high school credits and earns a B-minus. Earning an A-minus, Bloomington High School houses the Bloomington Area Career Center, which allows students to explore different skill sets to prepare for work after graduation.

A trail spanning Bloomington and Normal
Ewing Park offers residents a playground with swings and climbing walls, miles of trails to hike and exercise stations throughout the park.

Indoor and outdoor malls nearby
Except the Bloomington Country Club, the neighborhood of Country Club Place-Northcrest is all homes. But there are plenty of shopping and dining opportunities around the neighborhood. For an essential mall experience, Eastland Mall holds stores like American Eagle and Spencers. “College Hills shopping area is an outdoor shopping mall I prefer,” Bliss says. “But since we’re centrally located between Chicago and St. Louis, it’s fun to head to Chicago and explore some of the shops around the suburbs.” Country Club Place-Northcrest’s closest grocery store is Green Top Grocery on East Washington Street, though options like Fresh Thyme Market and Signature India Groceries sit just east of North Veterans Parkway. Options for dining out include Meatheads Burger and Fries in Eastland Commons and Garden of Paradise on East Empire Street.

Public transit and access to Interstate 74
The Bloomington-Normal public transportation system—Connect Transit—serves bus stops on streets surrounding Country Club Place-Northcrest and connects residents to the rest of the Bloomington-Normal area. Less than half a mile east of the neighborhood, North Veterans Parkway connects resident drivers to Interstates 55 and 74. Drivers can also head four miles west on East Washington Street to reach Interstate 74. The neighborhood’s main streets are lined with sidewalks, but residential streets closer to the country club lack space for walking.Car shows and fun runs
The city of Bloomington offers residents plenty of opportunities for celebration. Hill of a Race is an annual fitness challenge held in Ewing Park featuring a 3-mile course of running, lifting and climbing challenges. The city also hosts a handful of Fourth of July celebrations with fireworks at parks like Fairview Park and Miller Park. The city also hosts a full calendar of summertime events like Bloomington Gold—a car show celebrating Corvettes and Camaros—and a downtown concert series that takes place every Saturday.The airport is a bonus
Though the Central Illinois Regional Airport at Bloomington is roughly two miles east of Country Club Place-Northcrest, Bliss says it poses no problems for residents. “We love the airport here,” Bliss says. “It’s fantastic if you don’t want to drive to Chicago. You can go out of Bloomington and connect to Chicago if you want to get somewhere bigger. But we have direct flights to a lot of places too.”

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
