Subdivisions and suburban landscapes
Sprawling on the western fringes of the city, West Plainfield is largely comprised of residential subdivisions with the DuPage River meandering along its eastern boundary. With rural and suburban landscapes largely making up its visual appeal, the neighborhood is just south of Plainfield proper. “The vibrant downtown scene of Plainfield mirrors the charm and allure of the historic Route 66 towns of yesteryear,” says Bree Patterson-Wuest, Event Coordinator for the Plainfield Chamber of Commerce. “There are amazing restaurants, two breweries and a winery, and the area is easily walkable after parking.”
Downtown Plainfield has a variety of boutique shops, bars and restaurants.

Parks in and around the West Plainfield area
One of West Plainfield’s most unique attractions when it comes to getting outside is the Plainfield StoryWalk, a concept spanning parks across the country but located in Settlers Park here. Along with the park’s playground, tennis courts, baseball field and Richard A. Rock Amphitheater, the StoryWalk provides kids with the unique opportunity to read a story with pages scattered down its lit paths.

Unfolding over 67 acres, the park runs along the river’s curved banks and has picnic areas, trails and more. Just east, the Gregory B. Bott Community Skate Park gives area residents a place to channel their inner X Games, and farther east, the Lake Renwick Preserve stretches nearly 1,000 acres with opportunities to fish, bike and view wildlife.
