North Riverside is a village and suburb of Chicago, which is conveniently only 12 miles away. Dominated by green space to the west and retail centers to the east, North Riverside resembles a commercial hub rather than a small town.

Across town, the North Riverside Park Mall offers popular apparel stores, casual dining, a children’s amusement center, and a movie theater. For more entertainment options, you’ll find residents visiting neighboring communities, like Brookfield, Oak Park, and Broadview. Once you move into your new apartment, visit the award-winning Brookfield Zoo or Oak Park’s thriving downtown district filled with restaurants, art studios, bars, and more. Excellent for commuters who work in the Windy City, Riverside is only a 30-minute drive to Chicago and convenient to several transit stations.
