Local parks and public transit define Schiller Park
Situated between the O’Hare International Airport and a densely forested nature preserve, Schiller Park blends urban bustle and natural landscapes. The community features organized residential streets 20 miles from Downtown Chicago, but some of the city’s energy reaches Schiller Park by plane, train and car. Train tracks run diagonally through Schiller Park and major interstates meet in the north, but the Village of Schiller Park centers the community with local events and public green spaces. With public transportation, parks and local restaurants at their fingertips, residents can maintain a convenient, energetic lifestyle in Schiller Park.
Kids in Schiller Park will love climbing the ropes on the playground at Kennedy Park.

Brick bungalows sit on small lots
Houses in Schiller Park are arranged on sidewalk-lined, gridded streets and usually feature small grass lots and concrete walkways. Air traffic keeps home prices lower than in some western Chicago neighborhoods, so homebuyers will find a three-bedroom condo in a building from the 1980s for $260,000. The majority of the available homes are brick bungalows built in the 1950s and 60s, which are priced between $300,000 and $400,000. Investors will find multifamily properties built in the 1960s that cost around $550,000.
There are many single story ranch style homes in Schiller Park.

Eco-friendly, elevated dining at Great Escape Restaurant
Great Escape Restaurant is an eco-conscious dining spot known for its elevated American fare and the wind turbine at the back of the property, which powers the entire business. Mantra by Indian Garden serves traditional Indian cuisine in a relaxing, plant-filled environment, while family-owned Frannie’s Beef and Catering is a fast-casual joint serving Italian sausage sandwiches. The northern section of the community stretches into the Village of Rosemont, where residents can shop for new pieces to add to their closets at the Fashion Outlets of Chicago. KD Market and Aldi stock groceries and daily essentials.
The Great Escape is a Schiller Park favorite for classic American style lunch or diner.
The bar inside of The Great Escape is 135years old Schiller Park land mark according to owners.

Celebrate holidays with neighbors in Schiller Park
“I’d say it’s a very people-centered community, so events always have a big turnout,” says Eva Sanchez, Broker/ Realtor with @properties Christie's International Real Estate who has served the western Chicago suburbs for 26 years. Schiller Park celebrates holidays throughout the year with activities. Kids hunt for eggs during the community's Easter Eggstravaganza, and the 4th of July Community Pool Party at Anna Montana Water Park offers free hot dogs, live music and free admission to the pool. Schiller Park residents get in the holiday spirit with a tree lighting and visits from Santa and Mrs. Claus at Schiller Park Community Center.
Hike or fish at Schiller Woods
The northern portion of Schiller Park bears the tangle of interlocking roadways and on-ramps that guide travelers out of the O’Hare International Airport, but residents still find green space by Interstate 294 and Interstate 90. Dunne Park Recreation Center offers a peaceful reprieve from the traffic, as locals can eat lunch in the gazebo and watch ducks and swans swim around a small pond. Kids splash in the pool and race down waterslides during the summer at Anna Montana Water Park and Memorial Pool and play year-round at Kennedy Park’s athletic fields and playground. Locals can watch deer run through the meadows, go fishing or take a forested hike at Schiller Woods, a nature preserve.
The river running through Schiller Park, IL makes for some beautiful scenery all year round.

Major interstates, trains and buses route to Chicago
“A lot of commuters drive since they're right by the major interstates. It only takes 25 minutes, which is faster than the train,” Sanchez says. Public transportation options, like the Metra rail line and the Pace Suburban Bus system, take about an hour to get downtown. The O’Hare International Airport is just over the community's eastern border, so the bus system saves residents from paying airport parking fees. The Canadian Pacific Kansas City operates a rail line and container yard parallel to the Schiller Park Metra line.
You can catch a bus at the Rosemont Station near Schiller Park.

Residents experience O’Hare air traffic
Seeing planes fly overhead is a part of life in Schiller Park. "The houses right by the landing path do experience a lot of air traffic, but the airport has a program where it provides soundproofing for windows, doors and roofs to those living right by the airport,” Sanchez says.
Schiller Park is very close to O'hare International airport.
North of Schiller Park, Rosemont's transit hub connects passengers between rail, bus, and plane.
