A thriving business zone beneath suburbia
It would be understandable to look at the quiet streets and peaceful parks of Elk Grove Village East and assume that it was just a sleepy suburb. But underneath that cozy exterior is a buzzing hive of industry, with thousands of companies doing business in its many corporate parks. First incorporated in 1956, Elk Grove Village's eastern section represents its earliest days, with many families putting down roots for generations. This has led to a friendly, community-driven place to live. "It's like living in Mayberry," says Lori Christensen, a broker with N. W. Village Realty and Elk Grove Village resident since 1968. "There's a great mix of culture and community. Everyone looks like you, and no one looks like you. It's terrific."
The residential streets of Elk Grove Village East display a variety of home styles.

Planned communities evolve into diverse neighborhoods
In its early boom during the 1950s, planned communities in Elk Grove Village East flourished, with ranch-style homes dominating the landscape. Though it's still easy to find those classic homes, other styles have gained popularity in the years since, including split-level, arts-and-crafts, and Tudor. Prices start in the high $100,000s for condos and extend into the $300,000s for ranch and split-level style homes. More modern construction can reach as high as the $700,000s. Local neighborhood sidewalks are typical, particularly in the older sections of town, where pedestrians are a regular part of the landscape. "It's a wildly popular area for walking the dog or jogging," says Christensen.
The majority of homes in Elk Grove Village East are ranch style.

It's a very safe neighborhood with great schools. A good place to raise a family. There's not a lot to do for fun if you don't have young kids, but there are places in neighboring towns you can go to.

Elk Grove is a very quiet suburb of Chicago. The population is older and it is a great place to raise your family. I like how close it is to the city, about 25-30 minutes with no traffic. The resources the village has to offer is very helpful to a lot of individuals and families.

The industrial park in Elk Grove provides a lot of jobs to families in the northwest suburbs of Chicago. Lots of different jobs are available, from office jobs to manual labor.
