Lombard Overview

A suburb of the world-famous Chicago landscape, Lombard apartments have much to offer potential residents of the great state of Illinois. From high caliber amenities to easy access to the thriving job market, this is one mid-western destination well worthy of consideration.

What is the history of Lombard?

Settled in the 1800s, this city quickly made a name for itself as a hub of timber milling. The 1848 arrival of the Galena and Chicago Railroad helped further cement the draw of Lombard, and the city expanded to include a school and a number of homes boasting Italian-influenced architectural flourishes. Lombard is also the birthplace of the 'Little Orphan Annie' comic strip, and is held in high regard by botanical fans for its abundance of flowers, often referred to as 'The Lilac Village'.

How is the weather in Lombard?

Spring tends to bring rain showers, although the temperatures tend to be quite pleasant, and summers can often run hot. Fall is rounded out by crisp, dry evenings, and the winter months can deliver snow, often in impressive amounts.

How do I get around town?

The Metra Western Line covers rail service for most residents of Lombard apartments, and bus service to greater Chicago and beyond is found with relative ease. Many of those living in the state claim ownership of a personal automobile, and taxis are easily hired as well. O'Hare Airport is a stone's throw away, making air travel a breeze.

What is the Lombard commute like?

I-88 and I-355 are the primary roadways used by commuters, and the daily traffic can be compounded by consistent roadwork construction and fender bended delays. Winter weather also can yield a slower 9-to-5 travel time.

What are the local media outlets?

The 'Daily Herald' and the 'Chicago Tribune' are both primary print news sources for Lombard apartment residents, and the 'Lombard Spectator' adds some local highlights to the mix. Radio is as diverse as the people who call this proud Illinois city home, ranging from sporting news (go Cubs!) to modern rock, hip hop to classical compositions. Broadcast is also in high supply, with just about every major channel available via a Chicago affiliate.

Why live in Lombard, IL?

Flush with natural beautification and offering charm to spare, this Chicago suburb of close to 43,000 residents is an ideal slice of Illinois life at its finest. Close to the Windy City job market and nightlife offerings, while still maintaining a distinct local flavor all its own, it comes as little surprise that Lombard rentals are typically in demand by both families and working class singles alike.

What Lombard landmarks should I see?

The beautiful Maple Street Chapel dates all the way back to 1870, and the former train station and a number of other historic sites can be found by the determined time capsule buff. The Masjid Darussalam Islamic Center is a wonder of architecture to behold, and Lombard has plenty in the way of public parks as well.

What is there to do around Lombard?

Yorktown Center is the place to be for shopping bargains, and the Noon Whistle Brewing Company is a fantastic place to raise a pint with friends. The Enchanted Castle is a hit with families, while the Lombard Roller Rink will transport nostalgic adults to a skating paradise gone by.

Any annual festivals or Lombard events to know?

May belongs to the Lilac Festival, an annual event dating back to the 1930s and stretching over two weeks of pageantry, food, live music and more. Chicago is home to a large array of yearly throw-downs as well, including the hilarious Comedy Exposition, the indie music mecca Pitchfork Festival, and the truly huge Lollapalooza.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Detroit and greater Michigan make a great weekend adventure escape, while much of Illinois proper is filled with camping, fishing and hiking options for the outdoor enthusiast. Ohio and its Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame is another driving option, while the scenic farmland of Indiana are never far away from most Lombard apartments.

Where is the best place to move in Lombard?

Whether you are on the hunt for an affordable one bedroom unit close to the I-355 on-ramp, or desire a larger family rental complete with onsite amenities such as swimming pool, reserved parking and playground for the kids, we are confident that the ideal apartment in Lombard is out there waiting to make your acquaintance. So don't let another day go by without discovering all that life in Illinois has to offer! Start your search for the next great place to call home today!
