What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Lombard

I like that I can walk to a restaurant. I wish that there were more dress shops or boutiques to walk to.

What is unique about my neighborhood is that it is in the downtown area of a nice suburb. So, it is next to a library, park, public transit, small clinic, and a lot of nice restaurants. I love showing off the park when my friends come to visit and we usually stop at one of the locally owned businesses for food.

Very residential and school friendly. Nearby restaurants are diverse and clean. There is a frisbee golf cours in the nearby park.

It is close to the malls and restaurants. It is also not far from downtown Chicago. It is also close to many forest preserves

It is the lilac village since we have a park that is dedicated to them. It has a nice downtown with lots of small businesses plus has alll the chains through the town

Lively people everywhere, good schools, lots of dogs, a large variety of stores are around. Grocery and shopping.

Living in Lombard, IL

Searching for a great apartment in Lombard? When you find one, you'll also find a city with many local attractions and recreational activities. And with Chicago a mere 30 miles away from central Lombard, the options for entertainment and excitement are plentiful.

With more than 450 acres of green space in the Lombard Park District, finding an apartment in Lombard near a park or trails won't be difficult. Lombard residents have year-round access to 52 miles of recreational trails, and both the Illinois Prairie Path and the Great Western Trail run through the center of Lombard. The Lombard Park District is even a finalist for the 2009 National Gold Metal Awards for Excellence in Park and Recreation Management.

If you're hoping to play golf somewhere near your Lombard apartment, there are two 9-hole courses in town: Western Acres, a challenging par 35 golf course, and Ken Loch, a public course on Finley Road. For other sports not far from your apartment, the Lombard Park District offers many youth and adult athletic programs and fitness classes. For water lovers, the recently constructed Paradise Bay Water Park features four waterslides, a lounging pool, a lap pool and more. In the winter, you and your loved ones can ice skate in one of the park district's zero-depth ponds, play hockey or go sledding.

Another great reason to get out of that new apartment is to visit one of Lombard's historical homes. Lombard Historical Museum is a cottage-style home that displays Victorian artifacts and furniture typical of the late nineteenth century when Lombard was incorporated as a town. The Sheldon Peck Homestead was built in 1839 and is known as the oldest house in Lombard. The Dr. William LeRoy House is an 1881 historic home on North Main Street. LeRoy, a prominent doctor who made artificial limbs for Civil War veterans, built the home himself. The house was later home to the parents of Harold Gray, creator of the Little Orphan Annie cartoon strip.

On Tuesday mornings from May through October, you can stock the refrigerator and pantry of your Lombard apartment with cheeses, organic meats, pastries, fresh produce and more at the French Farmer's Market downtown. In May, don't miss the Lilac Festival that showcases 200 types of lilacs and 50 varieties of tulips in Lilacia Park. There are also concerts, heritage tours, a parade and more during the three-week period known as Lilac Time.
