Why Live in Old Town
The small Maywood community of Old Town combines a historic setting with city-like convenience. "It's mostly residential and a pretty quiet neighborhood," says Marsha Burton, an IT manager at Maywood Public Library District and longtime Maywood resident. Homes dating back more than 150 years underscore the neighborhood’s name, and its central location means residents can walk to the village's namesake park and library or Metra's Maywood Station. The locally owned restaurants on Lake Street are close to home and near Interstate 290. Mature white oaks and elms line the neighborhood's streets. National Folk, American Foursquare and ranch-style homes make up most of the neighborhood. While the majority of homes here date back to the late 1800s and early 1900s, a few were built during the mid-20th century. Many feature driveways and detached garages, and streets are wide enough for off-street parking. Single-family homes typically sell between $110,000 and $345,000. A few multifamily properties are also available and range in price from $230,000 to $420,000. Maywood-Melrose Park-Broadview School District No. 89 earns a C on Niche.
