Clarendon Hills Reviews
Rating 4.43 out of 5 30 reviews
We have lived here since 2015 (moved from La Grange) and are very happy here. We moved for the schools and a larger home and lot size. Clarendon Hills is an extremely well run town. You get quick answers from the Village when you call and the streets are always in great shape when there is a snow storm. They also have newer infrastructure (electric, sewage, roads). You hardly ever have power outages and never a problem with flooding. The schools are extraordinary, teachers top of their game and school resources phenomenal. It's a great place to live!
Pros: Small town, very clean and safe, upper middle class community. Easy to walk to parks and schools. Great for small children.
Cons: Lack of racial and ethnic diversity. Very conservative views. Before the 2020 Election saw a lot of ads supporting on house lawns Trump administration. That gives you an idea of peoples ideology in the neighborhood. Mostly empty downtown. Not good restaurants, bars, bakeries or shops. Very limited options. Lack of options for teenagers. The only 2 places you mostly see them hanging out are Starbucks or Brama La Pizza.
Have to drive to Westmont and Downers Grove for good restaurants and a better downtown.

We moved here 2 years ago and love it! Housing is spendy but there are no "cookie cutter" houses and the neighborhoods look great. Everything is walk-able. We love letting our kids walk to the library and into town for an ice cream cone or slice of pizza. I walk to the Metra station and can be in Chicago in 1/2 hour without dealing with the horrendous Chicago traffic. People are friendly and folks wave and visit. The middle school is top notch and feels much smaller than it is. My kids' teachers actually know who they are. We are so glad we are here.
