Been living in Orland for most of my life.. and woo - has it changed!
There has been a lot of housing developments... and a crazy increase in traffic. The roads are always SO busy. Now that most malls in surrounding areas have went on a decline/closed, all that traffic comes to OP.
There are a lot of shopping options whether its clothing or groceries or whatever. Decent suburban night life, mainly just sports bars and restaurants.
Living in OP -
Great parks & bike trails
Many restaurants
Many local events
Good schools
Downtown Chicago is about a 30-45 minute drive
Decent nightlife
Downsides -
Expensive
Traffic
Increase in robberies lately

Having lived in Orland Park my entire life, I love it. While it isn't perfect, I really have enjoyed living here, and consider myself lucky to have the privilege of living in such a nice town. The public school system is very high quality, with above average programs (especially in history and math). There is just about everything you would need out of any suburban town, with plenty of activities, restaurants, and more. Additionally, its proximity to Chicago gives it the perfect location: it is close enough where citizens of Orland Park can take advantage of the broad variety of things in Chicago, yet far enough where one can live a quieter life. While an amazing place to live, there are some minor downsides. There could be more diversity in schools, as the community is predominantly white. Also, most people in the area come from well-off families, so there isn't much variety in economic situations. Despite these minor negatives, Orland Park is still a wonderful place to live.
Orland Park is a fantastic place to call home. It's filled with a great community where safety is a top priority. The educational opportunities here are outstanding, providing a solid foundation for our future. The local police force is commendable, ensuring a strong sense of security. I'm grateful for the quality of life my hometown offers, and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.
