The area, not just the school
Plainfield blends small-town history with the comforts of a modern suburb, and that mix is a big part of why families love settling here. The village grew up along the banks of the DuPage River, which still winds right through the heart of town, and the walkable historic downtown along Lockport Street is full of local shops, restaurants, and community events that give the area a real sense of place.
Getting around is easy, which matters when you are raising a family or commuting to work. Route 59 and Route 126 connect the village to neighboring towns, and I-55 puts downtown Chicago within reach for commuters, with Metra rail service available in nearby communities for those who would rather leave the car at home.
The housing here leans toward newer construction, with established neighborhoods alongside the subdivisions that helped the village grow to roughly 44,800 residents at the 2020 census. Whether you are looking for a roomy family home near well-regarded schools or something with a little more land toward the edges of town, Plainfield offers a lot of choice at a friendly suburban pace.

About Plainfield South High School
Plainfield South High School, known as PSHS, is a four-year public high school established in August 2001 as part of Plainfield Community Consolidated School District 202, which also runs Plainfield Central, Plainfield North, and Plainfield East. The campus sits at the corner of Caton Farm Road and Ridge Road, with more than 200 classrooms, a fieldhouse, an auditorium, a competition gym, and a 4,000-seat stadium. While it carries a Plainfield address and is part of the Plainfield district, the campus itself sits within the Joliet city limits.
Plainfield South competes as the Cougars in the Southwest Prairie Conference, where it was a founding member. The school made District 202 history in 2010 when its boys bowling team won the state championship, the first state title in any sport for any school in the district. The Cougars later captured the 2022 IHSA Class 3A boys cross country state championship.
