About the community
An original Harold Moser neighborhood close to downtown Naperville.
Moser Highlands is one of Naperville's original postwar subdivisions, part of the larger Highlands area that developer Harold Moser began building in the mid-1950s as the first large commercial subdivision in the city. It sits on Naperville's east and southeast side in DuPage County, close to downtown and the DuPage River corridor, with a mature, established character of winding streets, large lots, and grown trees. Original mid-century ranches and split-levels are now mixed with newer custom infill builds, and it is served by the sought-after Naperville District 203, feeding Naperville Central High School.

What it’s actually like to live here
Moser Highlands appeals to buyers who want an established, walkable Naperville address without the price of a brand-new subdivision. Many residents are families drawn by District 203 schools and the short hop to downtown Naperville and the Riverwalk, along with move-up buyers and empty nesters who value mature trees, larger lots, and a quiet, settled street feel over cul-de-sac uniformity. It is the kind of neighborhood where people walk to dinner downtown, bike the river trail, and know their neighbors.
The honest tradeoff is home age. The original housing stock dates to the 1950s and 1960s, so a portion of homes are true mid-century ranches and split-levels that may need updating in kitchens, baths, and mechanicals. Buyers should budget for renovation on original homes or pay a premium for one already updated or rebuilt. Because there is no HOA, exterior upkeep and architectural variety are left to individual owners.
The upside of that same age is location and land. These are close-in Naperville lots that newer far-flung subdivisions cannot replicate, which is exactly why the area has seen steady teardown-and-rebuild activity, with custom homes reaching well above $600,000. Buyers here are effectively choosing location, lot, and school district first, then deciding whether to renovate, rebuild, or buy already updated. Naperville and DuPage County taxes are high, so model the full carrying cost per address.

Moser Highlands FAQ
The questions I get most from buyers shopping Moser Highlands. If yours isn't here, text 224-385-8779, same-day reply.
- What are property taxes like?
- Roughly $9,000 – $11,000 per year, depending on home size and value. DuPage County assessor records are the source of truth. Happy to pull a specific bill on any home you're considering.
- When was Moser Highlands built?
- Harold Moser (original Highlands developer) built the community between 1955 and 2008. Harold Moser (original Highlands developer) stopped new construction in 2008, so every sale today is a resale.
- What's the typical closing timeline?
- 30 to 45 days from accepted offer to keys. Cash deals can close in two weeks. Conventional financing is usually closer to 45.
- What school district is Moser Highlands in, 203 or 204?
- Naperville Community Unit School District 203. The assigned high school is Naperville Central. Elementary and junior high assignments (Highlands or Elmwood Elementary, Kennedy or Lincoln Junior High) can vary by exact address near the boundary lines, so confirm the specific home with the District 203 locator.

- No. There is no mandatory homeowners association and no HOA dues, which is typical for Naperville's original mid-century Highlands neighborhoods.
- How old are the homes, and are they outdated?
- The neighborhood dates to the mid-1950s, so many original homes are ranches and split-levels from the 1950s and 1960s. Many have been updated or rebuilt, and newer custom infill homes are mixed in, so expect a range from original to fully renovated.

- Very close. Much of the neighborhood is a short walk or drive from downtown Naperville and the Riverwalk, and the Naperville BNSF Metra station offers commuter rail to Chicago.
- What are property taxes like?
- Naperville and DuPage taxes are high relative to the national average, with an effective rate around 2 percent. For homes here, annual taxes commonly land around $9,000 to $11,000 depending on value and exemptions.
