Spectacular South Holland, ILJust a half-century ago, the village of South Holland was picturesque farmland laden
with onions. Today, the village is one of the most desirable of the suburban destinations
in Chicago Southland. The community boasts some of the most well-maintained
and luxurious homes in the entire region. The spectacular community center, the lush
botanical gardens, well-equipped parks, a sports complex, active civic and social
organizations, hobby clubs, and sports leagues are all part of the quality of life. A
highlight for visitors is the Midwest Carvers Museum, displaying carvings by national
and international artists. Most of the homes were constructed over the past four decades,
giving the town a more contemporary look than many of its long-established neighbors.
Popular architectural styles include ranches, split-levels, tri-levels, and quad-levels. The
northern part of the village offers smaller "starter" homes in tranquil neighborhoods,
while well-preserved older homes can be found near the business district. The village
is flanked by Interstates 80 and 94, located 23 miles south of the Loop. Reflecting its
Dutch heritage in its name, South Holland remains an enviable suburban address. | More Local Area InformationJust 30 miles south of Chicago, South Holland is a friendly community that places a premium on family life.
