About the Northbrook Area 

Affectionately called “the village of friendly living,” Northbrook in Cook County is one of the more desirable and affluent communities within the greater Chicago area. During the 1950s, careful zoning attracted light industry that provides a broad tax base. Outstanding school districts are crowned by the advantage of Glenbrook North High School—one of the nation's finest and most impressively equipped. With nearly 400 acres of parkland, Northbrook provides abundant facilities and opportunities for recreation including golf, tennis, swimming, team sports, and ice skating. Residents can shop in the quaint downtown area with its fine shops and restaurants or at Northbrook Court, one of the premier malls in Chicagoland. Many of Chicagoland’s most popular attractions are within a few minutes of Northbrook including the Chicago Botanic Garden, the dazzling Ravinia Music Festival, and Six Flags Great America. Commuters rely on the Tri-State Tollway (I-294), the Edens Expressway (I-94), and Metra’s Milwaukee North Line to reach the Loop. Bus service is also available.
