About the community
A settled, family-oriented Gurnee neighborhood with a genuinely active HOA.
Providence Village is an established single-family subdivision on the south and central side of Gurnee, in Warren Township, Lake County. Built out mostly from the late 1980s through the 1990s, it is one of Gurnee's larger and better-known single-family communities, with roughly 385 homes across many floor plans. Homes are predominantly two-story colonial and traditional styles with attached garages and basements, and several sections back to parkland and forest-preserve open space. What sets it apart is an unusually active homeowners association that runs neighborhood traditions and keeps residents connected.

What it’s actually like to live here
Providence Village reads as a settled, family-oriented Gurnee neighborhood rather than a new-construction subdivision. The homes date largely to the late 1980s and 1990s, so buyers get mature trees, established landscaping, full basements, and floor plans sized for families, on public streets maintained by the Village. What sets the community apart is an unusually active homeowners association: it runs neighborhood traditions like the Fall Festival and Ice Cream Night, reimburses block parties, and keeps residents connected through a private group and newsletter, all for modest annual dues.
The location is the other core draw. You are minutes from I-94 and Route 41 for commuting, close to Gurnee Mills, Six Flags, and Great Wolf Lodge, and you have Gurnee Park District parks including a renovated Kings Park that some homes back onto, plus direct access to the Des Plaines River Trail for walking and biking. It is a practical, amenity-rich pocket of Lake County that trades big-city walkability for suburban convenience and green space.
The honest tradeoffs are taxes, transit, and drainage history. Lake County property taxes are high, which every buyer should underwrite up front. There is no Metra station in Gurnee itself, so rail commuters drive to a Grayslake-area station. Parts of the subdivision have a documented history of standing-water issues that the Village addressed through a phased swale-improvement project, so buyers should ask about lot drainage and any easement restrictions. And because this is an established community, homes vary in how much they have been updated, so condition matters more than in a uniform new build.
The questions buyers actually ask
Providence Village FAQ
The questions I get most from buyers shopping Providence Village. If yours isn't here, text 224-385-8779, same-day reply.
- What does the HOA actually cover?
- The Providence Village Homeowners Association charges about $150 per year. It is primarily a covenant and community association: dues fund neighborhood events and administer the community rules and architectural approvals rather than lawn or exterior maintenance. Streets are public and maintained by the Village of Gurnee. Confirm the current dues amount with the association.
- What are property taxes like?
- Roughly $9,000 – $15,000 per year, depending on home size and value. Lake County assessor records are the source of truth. Happy to pull a specific bill on any home you're considering.
- What's the typical closing timeline?
- 30 to 60 days from accepted offer to keys. Cash deals can close in two weeks. Conventional financing is usually closer to 60.
- Is there an HOA, and what does it cost?
- Yes. The Providence Village Homeowners Association charges about $150 per year. It is primarily a covenant and community association: it funds neighborhood events and administers the community rules and architectural approvals rather than maintaining your lot or the streets, which are public and maintained by the Village of Gurnee. Confirm the current dues amount with the association before closing.
- What schools serve Providence Village?
- MLS and district data place the subdivision in Woodland Community Consolidated School District 50 for K-8 and Warren Township High School District 121 for grades 9 to 12. Because Gurnee is split among multiple elementary districts, confirm the exact assigned schools for a specific address with the districts before relying on it.
- What kinds of homes are in Providence Village?
- Mostly two-story single-family homes in colonial and traditional styles with attached garages and basements, generally 3 to 5 bedrooms and a wide range of sizes, built mainly in the late 1980s and 1990s.
- What do homes cost, and how is the market right now?
- Prices and market pace move with conditions, so see the live Market snapshot on this page for current pricing, inventory, and recent activity rather than a static figure.
- How are the property taxes?
- High, as is typical for Lake County. Plan on a meaningful annual bill and verify the exact amount for a specific parcel, after any homeowner or senior exemptions, with the Lake County Treasurer.
- How is the commute and what is nearby?
- You are minutes from I-94 and Route 41, with Route 132 and Route 21 close by. Gurnee Mills, Six Flags Great America, Great Wolf Lodge, Gurnee Park District parks, and the Des Plaines River Trail are all nearby. There is no Metra station in Gurnee itself, so rail commuters use a Grayslake-area station.

Your local agent
Joe knows Providence Village
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.
