Why Live in Round Lake

Round Lake in north-central Lake County, Illinois, is a small community founded in 1909 as an ice-cutting town on its namesake lake. With just under 18,500 residents, it is the second-largest of the Round Lake Area communities and has its own village government and identity. Home values here are generally more affordable than the Lake County median, and many longtime residents have been renovating older properties. Round Lake High School, which serves all four Round Lake Area communities, has a relatively high rating and features a Business Incubator Program where juniors and seniors work with mentors to develop products or services. Commuters use the Metra line for a roughly 90-minute ride to Chicago Union Station, and Pace Bus Route 570 stops throughout the community and connects to the College of Lake County about 5 miles away. Nippersink Forest Preserve sits in the middle of town and features 329 acres of oak woods, lakes, marshes, and 3 miles of trails, while the nearby Chain O’Lakes and Long Lake expand local water recreation features. Indoor activities center on the Robert W. Rolek Community Center, which also functions as a senior and child development center. Shopping and dining are limited in Round Lake itself, but the one-block downtown includes Twisted Burger and La Luz Bakery Panderia y Pasteleria, with more options in Round Lake Beach and Fox Lake. Residents also head about 5 miles southeast to the Lake County Fairgrounds for the annual Fair and year-round events.
