Acreage and ace schools an hour from Chicago
The city of Prospect Heights offers the kind of golden medium that’s hard to find. With homes that come on half-acre lots, a highly rated school system and unique bars and restaurants, this northwestern suburb of Chicago has the best of the country, the city and the in-between. Residents are only a few miles away from their go-to grocery stores, big-box retail, live music and a Metra rail going straight to Downtown Chicago, yet they can retreat to their own square—or half-acre—of Prospect Heights at the end of the day.
Prospect Heights has spacious homes with large lots.
Prospect Heights was incorporated into Cook County in 1976.

Homes on half-acre lots in Chicagoland
Prospect Heights is Chicagoland’s take on country living. “Many homes are on a half-acre. It’s hard to find that much space unless you go farther out,” says Terry Anderson, a Prospect Heights local and managing broker with Baird & Warner. Though homes in Prospect Heights come with acreage, homebuyers can find a variety of price points in the area, from townhouses for first-time buyers to estates close to $1 million.
Brick, ranch-style homes stretch across lawns with thoughtfully arranged shrubbery, while the occasional French country manor-inspired home adds bucolic character to Mount Prospect’s residential streets. Red brick, ranch-style homes with two to four bedrooms, primarily built in the ‘60s, cost between $350,000 and $450,000. Starting from $600,000 to $800,000, buyers will find more modern ranch-style homes in lighter shades of brick built in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s with four to five bedrooms. The market also features three-bedroom townhouses surrounding the Rob Roy Golf Course that sell in the $300,000s. Condominium units with lower price points are clustered near the shopping centers on East Rand Road.
The residents of Prospect Heights have a liking for Tudor architecture and design.

Dual credit and career exploration at Hershey High
Prospect Heights gives local children a strong start to their educational journey. Betsy Ross and Anne Sullivan Elementary Schools share a blacktop and a playground, surrounding Patriots Park with Macarthur Middle School. All three schools earn an A-minus from Niche. After attending Macarthur Middle School, students can move on to John Hersey High School, which boasts an A-plus.
With more than 1,100 of the school’s student body of roughly 2,000 enrolled in Advanced Placement or dual credit courses, John Hersey High prepares its students well for their next step in life. Hersey High students also enjoy access to the school district’s Center for Career Discovery, which facilitates more than 2,500 work-based learning experiences, like apprenticeships and internships, using its network of more than 1,000 industry partners. Students can explore their options through the Career Nights, Career Treks, site visits and industry speaker sessions that the center organizes.
Betsy Ross Elementary School has a student population of approximately 311 students.

Sports, summer camps and swimming in Lions Park
Lions Park, along with its Gary Morava Recreation Center, is the hub for all things sports and physical activity. With a baseball field, several tennis courts, pickleball courts, a handicap-accessible playground and a pool in the outdoor park, as well as a gym, a full-size basketball court, a racquetball court and a sauna in the indoor recreation center, there’s always something to do. Children can join sports teams and summer camps, or take swim lessons, offered by the Prospect Heights Park District. Residents can reconnect with nature on their own time on the 4-mile Prospect Heights Bike Trail and nearby Cook County Forest Preserves.
Gary Morava Recreation Center is a great place to get a workout in.

HOME Bar--home to live music, creative cocktails
Residents can meet most of their grocery needs with the Tony’s Fresh Market and Aldi on East Rand Road. The House of Music & Entertainment (HOME Bar) hosts head-banging rock bands on their spacious stage and concocts inventive cocktails, inspired by current chart-toppers like Bad Bunny, Olivia Rodrigo and Drake. The self-declared “lounge-meets-sports-bar” offers beer pong and pool tables on nights there’s not a show, with classic bar fare like mozzarella sticks, sliders and wings. Just down the street is Pinoy Grill, where Filipino street food like sweet pork buns and meat skewers are served hot.
Grade A Cafe serves brunch in Randhurst Village mall, just south of Prospect Heights.

Under an hour to Chicago Union Station
North Elmhurst Road bisects the city from north to south, running past several local businesses and the manicured greens of Old Orchard Country Club. West of the country club, East Rand Road boasts most of the city's retail and dining. Those on their way to Chicago merge onto Interstate 294, across the Allison Woods to the east of the city. However, commuters hoping to avoid Chicago traffic can board Metra’s North Central Service rail to Chicago Union Station at the Prospect Heights station, where multiple trains stop on weekday mornings.
Public transportation using the Metra at Prospect Heights is a breeze.
Prospect Heights is nearby the I-90 for convenient access to Downtown Chicago.
