Schaumburg Overview

Located less than thirty miles northwest of Chicago, Schaumburg is an on-the-move suburb brimming with opportunity. Considered part of the famed 'golden corridor' of Illinois, Schaumburg boasts a population of just under 75K.

What is the history of Schaumburg?

While the city was incorporated in the 1950s officially, the history of Schaumburg stretches back well into the 1800s. A large German population settled the primarily farmland first, and the 1900s saw an eclectic range of manufacturing, from slot machines to oil companies, call the city home. The addition of the roadway 290 in the 1970s led to further expansion, and today the city of Schaumburg is in the midst of a revitalization of its primary center.

How is the weather in Schaumburg?

Summers are generally warm and pleasant, while winters tend to be snow-filled and chilly. Fall and spring are typically mild if occasionally rainy, and the autumn leaf colors draw nature lovers from all over.

How do I get around town?

Pace handles bus service in the area, and the METRA system offers rail transportation running into Chicago proper and beyond. While Schaumburg does have a regional airport as well, most commercial flights are handled by nearby O'Hare and Midway, both of which offer numerous travel options daily. 

What is the Schaumburg commute like?

Interstate 90 runs east to west, while 290 heads north to south through the city. The Illinois 390 Tollway offers additional options for commuters. Chicago proper can see a lot of gridlock, particularly during the 9 to 5 rush hours, and Illinois road construction is a constant companion for those driving.

What are the local media outlets?

Radio tends to be wide-reaching in the city, and Schaumburg apartment residents can enjoy a mix of modern rock, jazz, classical and political talk options with ease. Print media is dominated by longstanding brands like the 'Daily Herald' and the 'Chicago Tribune', and the close proximity of Chicago means that a huge amount of broadcast television options are at the fingertips of Schaumburg apartment residents.

Why live in Schaumburg, IL?

Home to one of the only Ikea shopping centers in the state, Schaumburg apartments are close to a number of employers such as Motorola and Zurich, as well as a wide range of universities. With the Chicago nightlife and museums scene right around the corner, Schaumburg rentals truly offer a winning mix of all that life in Illinois has to offer.

What Schaumburg landmarks should I see?

Both Roosevelt University and the Illinois Institute of Art make their home close to an array of Schaumburg apartments, the Schaumburg Public Library holds over 500,000 literary works. The Oak Hollow Conservation Center is a wonderful place to get back to nature, and Woodfield Mall remains the spot to go for retail shopping.

What is there to do around Schaumburg?

Deer Grove presents over 1500 acres of wildlife trails and bird watching opportunities, and the nearby Legoland Discovery Center is a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon with the kids. Season 52 and the Weber Grill are fine dining establishments in the city, and the Village Tavern is an excellent place for residents of Schaumburg apartments to toast their new neighbors.

Any annual festivals or Schaumburg events to know?

An assortment of large music festivals such as Riot Fest and Pitchfork Fest are located in nearby Chicago, and Taste of Schaumburg is a great way to explore all the cuisine that Illinois is famous for, from deep dish pizza to italian beef hoagies. The nearby Scottish Games Fest is also a hit every spring, complete with competitive fun and live bands.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

The antique stores and crafting outlets of Indiana are just a few hours due south, and the lakes of Michigan are always an excellent spot for fishing and boating. Chicago, of course, is filled with art galleries, aquariums and museums, while the breweries and thrift stores of Wisconsin make yet another excellent vacation option for residents of Schaumburg apartments.

Where is the best place to move in Schaumburg?

From the streets of Plum Grove to the scenic Meacham Road neighborhood, Schaumburg rentals are available in a wide array of options to fit just about every lifestyle. So whether you are in the market for an affordable one bedroom close to the interstate, or desire a family-sized unit complete with onsite swimming pool and pet-friendly policies, odds are good the perfect Schaumburg apartment is ready and waiting for you. So why let another minute go by without an Illinois apartment of your very own? Start your search for the next ideal Schaumburg apartment today.
