Attractive Steger, IL

More than a century old, Steger draws new residents to a serene, primarily residential village that has managed to preserve much of its original rural flavor. Civic planners have been very selective in their promotion of the village to new business and industry, attracting quality companies that harmonize well with quiet neighborhoods for a balanced community. A number of strip malls add to the convenience of daily life in Steger, and nearby Richton Park provides a commuter link to the Loop via the Illinois Central Gulf Line. The housing selection presents a wide variety of sizes and styles, from traditional ranches to contemporary two-story family homes. On the weekends, many residents enjoy picnicking in the forest preserve or playing a round of golf on nearby fairways' Other recreational amenities include tennis courts, ice skating rinks, biking and jogging trails, sports fields, volleyball courts, and swimming pools. The village was named for John Valentine Steger, who moved his piano factory and many of its workers to this location. The community actually sprawls from Cook County into Wills County.
