Palos Heights, Illinois

Did you know that throughout the history, Palos Heights has managed to retain and improve on the character established when the first homes in the area were built on unincorporated land in Worth and Palos Townships? With a current population of about 12,000 residents, Palos Heights is both a small town and an exciting city.

Neighborhood parks, the Lake Katherine Nature Preserve and the adjacent Cook County Forest Preserves provide Palos Heights' residents with excellent opportunities for recreation, and a myriad of city recreation and sports programs give them plenty to do.

Palos Heights is a modern, residential community located in a rural setting. The heavily wooded, rolling terrain provides a quiet, country atmosphere, even though Chicago's Loop is only a short drive away. This combination of rural and urban living has made Palos Heights an ideal place to live and work.
