About the community
Living in Bloomingdale.
Bloomingdale sits about 29 miles northwest of the Chicago Loop in DuPage County, settled by the Meacham family in 1833 and incorporated as one of the earliest villages in the northern part of the county. The big local story right now is the transformation of the former Stratford Square Mall into The Grove at Bloomingdale, a $78 million mixed-use district with apartments, restaurants, a recreation anchor called Bloomingdale Yard, and a man-made lake. Most families end up here for Lake Park High School District 108 and Bloomingdale Elementary District 13, plus a Park District that runs 18 parks and the historic Meacham House museum in Old Town. The village owns its own 18-hole golf course, and the old Indian Lakes Resort property is being redeveloped by Maverick Hotels as Prairie Lakes Resort. Old Town hosts Septemberfest on the Saturday after Labor Day and a July 4 fireworks show at the former Indian Lakes open space.

What it’s actually like to live here
Bloomingdale is a family-first suburb. The Park District runs 18 parks and facilities, and Springfield Park, the flagship, has 1.1 miles of trails, 20 acres of wetlands, and the youth baseball and soccer complex where most local kids end up at some point. Old Town anchors the social calendar with Septemberfest on the Saturday after Labor Day with a parade ending at Old Town Park, plus the July 4 fireworks at the former Indian Lakes open space. The Park District Museum, housed in the village's oldest building from 1849, runs five to seven exhibits a year and quietly does a lot to keep local history present.
You live here for the suburban basics done well. Retail is close (Army Trail, Lake Street, and the rebuilt Stratford Square / The Grove site), the village owns and operates its own 18-hole golf course on Glen Ellyn Road, and DuPage forest preserves like the 255-acre Meacham Grove are minutes away. O'Hare is about 17 miles east and Schaumburg is five miles north, so it's an easy spot for households with one foot in the city and one in the northwest corporate corridor.

How Bloomingdale got here
A bit of history.
The Meacham brothers, Lyman, Silas, and Harvey, settled what is now Bloomingdale in 1833, farming roughly 1,200 acres in an area first called Meacham's Grove. Within a year, 12 to 15 families had joined them. Originally part of Cook County, the settlement was annexed by DuPage County in 1839, and in 1845 Bloomingdale became one of the first villages platted in the northern part of DuPage. The 1849 building that now houses the Bloomingdale Park District Museum in Old Town is the village's oldest structure, originally built as a Baptist church and later serving as Town Hall before becoming an art gallery in 1983.
Bloomingdale stayed a small farming community through the first half of the 20th century, then expanded in the postwar suburban wave: population went from 338 in 1950 to 12,659 by 1980. Stratford Square Mall opened in 1981 and anchored the village's retail economy for four decades before closing and being demolished in 2024 and 2025 to make way for The Grove at Bloomingdale, a $78 million mixed-use redevelopment. Today the population sits at 22,382 per the 2020 Census.
The questions buyers actually ask
Bloomingdale FAQ
The questions I get most from buyers shopping Bloomingdale. If yours isn't here, text 224-385-8779, same-day reply.
- How are Lake Park schools?
- Lake Park High School District 108 is a one-high-school district that splits 9th-10th graders at East Campus and 11th-12th graders at West Campus, both in Roselle. The school carries a 48 percent AP participation rate and ranks 73rd in Illinois on U.S. News, which is solidly in the upper tier for DuPage and Cook collar suburbs.
- What's happening with Stratford Square Mall?
- The mall closed and was demolished between October 2024 and June 2025. The village is rebuilding the site as The Grove at Bloomingdale, a $78 million mixed-use district with 280 luxury apartments, restaurants, shops, outdoor gathering spaces, a man-made lake, and a 100,000 sq ft indoor sports facility called Bloomingdale Yard expected to open in 2027. The village funded the acquisition with $17 million up front plus a $52 million TIF bond.
- How is the commute to Chicago from Bloomingdale?
- About 29 to 31 miles to the Loop by car, roughly 42 to 47 minutes off-peak. There is no Metra station in Bloomingdale itself, so commuters drive to Roselle (Milwaukee District West Line) or Glen Ellyn (Union Pacific West Line) and take the train in from there. O'Hare is closer, about 17 miles and 24 minutes.
- Where do families look first in Bloomingdale?
- Most family buyers focus on neighborhoods inside the Lake Park HS District 108 attendance area and within walking distance of a Park District park. Subdivisions around Springfield Park and Westlake Park are perennial favorites because of the trails, ballfields, and 20-acre wetland buffer at Springfield.
- What about the Old Town historic district?
- Old Town is the original 1830s settlement core. The Bloomingdale Park District Museum sits in the village's oldest building, an 1849 former Baptist church, and Old Town Park is the home of Septemberfest every year. Housing stock in and around Old Town runs older and smaller than the postwar subdivisions, which is part of the charm for some buyers and a non-starter for others.
- What's the property tax bill in Bloomingdale?
- Bloomingdale's effective property tax rate runs around 2.35 percent per Ownwell, with a median annual bill of $7,635. That is above the DuPage County average and well above the national median, but in line with what you would expect from a DuPage suburb with strong schools and a deep parks district.
- Is there a golf course in town?
- Yes. Bloomingdale Golf Club is an 18-hole public course at 181 Glen Ellyn Road. The village bought it in 1998 and the course itself has been operating since 1924.

Your local agent
Joe knows Bloomingdale
Most agents will list anything. I focus on the places I actually know, and the things that move value here don't show up in the MLS write-up: which streets and buildings hold demand, what the HOA or assessments really cover, how the comps read once you account for condition and location, and where buyers consistently want to be.
When you're ready to tour or list, you want someone who has read the last 50 closed comps in this specific market, not a national average, and can tell you what they actually mean for your price. That's how I work. Text or call any time, and I'll give you a real take, not a brochure.
