Elmhurst Overview

Largely considered a western suburb of Chicago, Elmhurst is a thriving community with much to offer potential Illinois residents. With a population of around 45,000, this is a locale that combines the best of smaller city life with easy access to the amenities of a bigger municipality.

What is the history of Elmhurst?

Originally named Cottage Hill during its founding in the 1800s, Elmhurst came into its own around the turn of the century with the addition of a local college and train station. A number of diverse industries have continued to call the city home through the years, including Keebler and Kellogg's.

How is the weather in Elmhurst?

Like much of Illinois, Elmhurst apartment residents can expect snowy winters highlighted by cold temperatures, while the summers tend to be warm and sunny. Storms are commonplace in the spring months, with fall proving quite pleasant, although snow has been known to make an appearance as early as October.

How do I get around town?

Both O'Hare and Midway Airports are easily reached by car from a majority of apartments in Elmhurst, making air travel a breeze, and bus service is handled by the Pace system.

Interstate 290 and I-88 act as the primary roadways around the city, both prone to commuter traffic during peak 9-to-5 hours. York Street is the primary north to south route, and generally moves at a brisk pace.

What are the local media outlets?

Print media is handled largely by the 'Chicago Tribune', and radio programming is a diverse affair, ranging from classical and political talk formats to contemporary rock and urban R&B. Most broadcast affiliates such as FOX and NBC are readily available in the Elmhurst region as well.

What Elmhurst landmarks should I see?

Elmhurst College boasts a number of historic buildings, the most famed among them the Old Main Building which dates all the way back to 1878. The Wilder Park Conservatory is an excellent place for nature lover's to spend an afternoon, and the Theatre Historic Society of America offers a wide collection of items from the world of opera, dance and cinema.

What is there to do around Elmhurst?

The Lizzardo Museum of Lapidary Art is a truly unique way to spend the day, offering a close-up view of impressive jade and stone carvings. Skyzone Trampoline Park is a must-visit for those Elmhurst apartment residents with kids, and Fitz's Spare Keys is an excellent place to dance the night away on the weekends. Mack's Golden Pheasant is also a hit with both the college sect and older bar patrons, known for their huge hamburgers and generous beer pours.

Any annual festivals or Elmhurst events to know?

The Block To Block Party is a great way to get to know your neighbors while also sampling tasty regional food and foot-tapping live music. The annual Turkey Trot draws large crowds every November, and nearby Chicago festivals such as the Comedy Exposition and Lollapalooza are always a hit.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Ohio's wonderland of rollercoast theme parks make a great weekend escape for residents of Elmhurst rentals, and the scenic countryside of Illinois is flush with hiking trails and campsites.

Berens Park is a popular family area of Elmhurst, while students tend to reside closer to the aptly-named College View district.
