The Western Chicago suburbs are experiencing a demographic shift as new residents from diverse backgrounds move in. Here’s what’s driving the change:
Attracted by lower living costs and proximity to Chicago’s job market, with easy access to major interstates AND Metra stops, many young adults are settling in the western suburbs. Suburbs like Naperville offer a bustling downtown area that is reminiscent of city living, and Lombard is welcoming new businesses to the Yorktown Center area which is perfect for those looking for affordability AND an exciting nightlife/weekend scene. Wheaton offers not one, but TWO Metra stops for city commuters.
Downsizing retirees appreciate the tranquil environment of the western suburbs and access to healthcare facilities. Central DuPage Hospital is ranked 7th in the state, and Endeavor Health Edwards is ranked 11th.
Areas such as Aurora and West Chicago are becoming hubs for multicultural communities, reflected in their local festivals and cuisine. New residents are adding vibrancy and diversity to already thriving suburban communities. The large Burmese community in Wheaton has opened a successful local favorite, Pa Lian! Check it out!
