Maywood, Illinois A Small Town In A Big City 5 rating By Anonymous ( May 10, 2018) I lived in Maywood, Illinois for 3 years and it truly is a fine place to live. Maywood is a suburb of Chicago and is located just 10 miles from the city's bustling downtown. The city of Chicago offers everything that most people can think of but Maywood manages to maintain a quai ...Read More nt, small town feel.

Maywood has a population of just under 30,000 people and is a historic suburb of Chicago. The town features many old homes that are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The city is serviced by the City of Chicago's public transportation and a quick ride on the train or bus will have you in the middle of all that Chicago has to offer.

For the sports fan, Maywood is a quick ride to all of Chicago's major sports stadiums that house the Chicago Bulls, Cubs, Blackhawks, White Sox, and Bears. The Magnificent Mile is just 10 miles away and features the very best in shopping and great restaurants. Read Less
