Wheaton is a city that has seen great changes over the last decades, transforming the town into one of the most desirable of the Western suburbs of Chicago.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Newcomers are often surprised to discover that the Mayberry town of Wheaton was a dry city until 1985, with not a drop of liquor sold in any of the city\u2019s supermarkets, convenience stores, or restaurants. Today, however, Wheaton is anything but a dull place to live, having seen a boom in business and real estate development since the 90s. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The downtown is packed with fantastic local businesses, including the skinniest popcorn shop you\u2019ve ever seen, and a weekly open-air market overflowing with fresh fruits, vegetables, cheese, and baked goods. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The park district draws visitors from the entire Chicagoland area<\/a> with its astounding variety of outdoor beauty. The school district has won its fair share of titles too, making Wheaton a popular choice for educationally-minded families. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although Wheaton has no end of fun places to go and nice people to meet, it is very well connected should you ever feel the need for a change of pace. There are two metra stops in town, with around 45 minutes <\/strong>to be in the hustle and bustle of Chicago. Wheaton is a great choice for city workers looking for more square footage, with around a third of the population making the daily commute. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charming, community-minded, and packed with cultural activities, Wheaton was recently named one of the best places to live<\/a> by Money.com. Keep reading and we\u2019ll show you what\u2019s to love about life in Wheaton.
