I love living in Lincolnwood! 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 28, 2018) I love Lincolnwood, Illinois! Living in Lincolnwood, Illinois, puts me close to Chicago for work, but gives me a community with a small-town feel. This area is incredibly safe and the police always make sure that their presence is known.
