Police did nothing about the crime and told me lock my car door. After moving to Hampshire Illinois what a difference in towns and people. If you want a nice little peaceful farm town than move to Hampshire Illinois which is about 8 miles away west of route 47. Pingree grove looks nice at first with the lakes and landscaping but after you move in you will see trouble start. 5 homes on my street have BLM flags in front so if you like that than it’s might be for you.

I lost $70,000 buying a home in Pingree Grove User Rating 1 rating By Anonymous ( Mar 04, 2019) My neighbors have block parties with mariachi bands and taco venders. I try to relax on my patio and Spanish music blasts loud for hours from neighbors backyards. Lowriders and Mexico flags everywhere and I go to the rec center and everyone is speaking Spanish. My car window has ...Read More been smashed and my husband caught Hispanic guys in his garage at midnight stealing stuff. Pingree Grove is just a subdivision with no town and no church or library or post office or park district, just one giant congested subdivision and Elgin is building 4,000 homes and apartments all around Cambridge lakes Pingree Grove and it will only get worse here. 35% of Pingree Grove does not know English and this is not the same town as 5 years ago. My family and friends warned me not to purchase here and I did not listen and now my home is worth $220,000 and I paid $300,000 for it and $9,700 a year in property tax. If you want a nice little friendly country town than move to Hampshire Illinois! Read Less
