Norridge, IL Has A Lot To Offer 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 16, 2018) There are a lot of great places to live in Illinois, but Norridge is definitely one of the best areas in the state. I have been living in Norridge for 6 years and life here is wonderful. I love all my neighbors and all the people I've met who live here. They all feel the same way ...Read More about our town as I do and we all strive to keep it picture perfect. We do all agree that the schools need a little work to cut back on the dropout numbers and to improve the graduation statistics, but other than that, this is a great place with lovely homes, a good job and housing market, close proximity to Chicago and other bigger cities for convenience, fairly decent weather all year, and beautiful scenery and well-kept properties.

With Chicago nearby, we have lots of options for r and r, such as The Chicago Helicopter Experience Tours, Chicago Prohibition Tours, Chicago Pizza Tours, The Putting Edge mini-golf and arcade, and the Chicago Architecture Foundation. Read Less
