Such a lovely suburb in south suburbs of Chicago! In Palos Heights you get the feeling you live with nature yet have all the amenities nearby. I love, love our Police Department as they go above and beyond to keep us safe and all the police are very friendly and respectful. Our area is culturally diverse, especially with Trinity College and it's absolutely beautiful campus in our neighborhood make walking the area so lovely. If I would change anything it would be to bring more food shops and quality restaurants to the area that we could all benefit from to fill some of these empty buildings.
Palos Heights is a great community with both a charming downtown area and diverse businesses. It's a safe community where neighbors look out for each other.
What I enjoy about the city of Palos Heights is that it is fairly quiet with plenty of small neighborhoods. The population is relatively average with ranging homes at different price points, mostly consisting of town/residential homes. However, the town mainly holds bank or religious structures. Once visiting all the restaurants or features that the town has to offer, it can be quite easy to get bored.
