Oswego is a bustling village just south of Aurora on the banks of the Fox River. Perched on the southwestern edge of the Greater Chicago region, residents of Oswego enjoy a healthy balance of easy access to the big city and the low-key lifestyle of the suburbs. With its peaceful neighborhoods, superb schools, and plenty of single-family homes in the local rental market, Oswego is a popular choice among many renters.
The village’s landscape is split between a thriving retail and residential scene. A cluster of shopping centers are placed along Walter Payton Memorial Highway while residential avenues fill the remaining area. The adjacent cities of Aurora and Naperville offer more options for shopping, dining, and entertainment.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
