Creekside is home to major employers
In the early 1800s, Creekside was attracting ambitious farmers from the East Coast. But fast forward to the 1950s, when developers purchased land around Salt Creek, then broadcast their plans for model homes in the local press. There was a vision: give blue-collar workers at chance at the American Dream. By 1955, people were arriving in droves, and 700 houses were sold. Crawford’s, the largest department store in the northwest suburbs, moved in as well. Western Electric, the famous manufacturer, also took root there. Evolving from an agricultural community into a booming business center, today Creekside is thriving suburb where 24,000 people have established a home. Indeed, top employers include Northrop Grumman, Verizon, Capital One and Walmart. Residents even have a flashy name for a strip of these big businesses: the Golden Corridor. “There are so many diverse jobs here,” says Realtor Wendy Lee. “So the economy doesn’t slow down if one industry suffers.”
Condos and midcentury modern homes
Condos are a popular lifestyle option in Creekside, and prices generally start in the low $200,000s. Look for low-rise buildings from the 1970s, some of which have modern appliances inside. But you can also find plenty of single-owner houses here as well. Once you crest into the $500,000s, you have access to a variety of move-in ready homes. Strongly represented is the midcentury modern style. Look for brick ranches on half-acre lots, which feel like a piece of pure suburban charm.
Shopping and dining at The Shoppes at Prime Village
Routes 53 and 62 run through Creekside, giving you ample transportation options. These are also your commercial corridors where you’ll find entertainment, dining and everyday amenities. At the Coach House Bar & Grill, listen to local music while chowing down on a burger. If you prefer an upscale experience, Chicago Prime Steakhouse promises white tablecloths and a fireside patio. Or, just head over to Aldi and grab ingredients for dinner — the Shoppes at Prime Village conveniently cluster all these businesses together. You can merge from these routes onto Interstate 90, giving you access to downtown Chicago within half an hour.
Plum Grove Park has 8 acres of fun
Many of the neighborhood roads feature cul-de-sacs and are fit for walking. Indeed, several parks are accessible directly from these residential streets. Try Plum Grove Park, where you can laze around on 8 acres of open green space, or step inside the banquet hall that has a rustic ambiance. There’s a skate park attached, too, if you feel like cutting loose.
Plum Grove Middle School is in the neighborhood
At Plum Grove Middle School, roughly 850 students are enrolled in grades 7 and 8. The school has an array of clubs, from robotics to anime to dance and drama.
