Situated along the Fox River, next to Batavia's major employers
Northeast Batavia sits right between the city’s major employers and the banks of the Fox River. While the neighborhood is mostly residential streets, except for the elementary school at the center, downtown Batavia is just south along the river, so residents are close to the shops and restaurants there. “What’s interesting about Batavia is that we are right next to Geneva and Saint Charles, which are nice, high-end areas, and on the other side of Batavia is Aurora, which has million-dollar homes,” says Kent Hernandez, a lifetime resident and Realtor with Worth Clark Realty. “So Batavia is this sweet spot of good schools and good neighborhoods that are not as expensive as the other river towns.”
Historic homes alongside newer styles and builds in Northeast Batavia
Batavia’s historic district sits at the heart of the city, but Northeast Batavia also features plenty of historic homes.

On the northern side of the neighborhood, the Batavia Highlands section is almost entirely ranch-style homes. Throughout Northeast Batavia, trees in front yards hang over the sidewalks, offering occasional shade. Streetlights sit at regular intervals, and telephone wires hang over homes. Houses here typically sell between $275,000 to $475,000.

Downtown's historic restaurants and shopping centers in the west
Just off Washington Avenue in Northeast Batavia, Lew’s Drive In is an old-fashioned diner with booths taken from an old Dairy Queen. Instead of menus, pictures of items are printed and framed on the wall, like pancakes, cheesesteaks and Polish sausages. For more options, residents can walk to downtown Batavia when the weather is nice. The Sidecar’s building is still an original from the 1880s and also includes a beer garden where visitors can listen to live music. About 2.5 miles west along Randall Road, Walmart Supercenter, Trader Joe’s and Aldi are all grouped together.

Playing at the elementary school or walking along the Fox River
Sharing its grounds with Louise White Elementary, Prairie Lathem Park backs homes in Northeast Batavia. Kids can play on the playground or get a group together for basketball and tennis. Laurelwood Park used to be a private park for the Chicago Northwestern Railroad but now offers residents a spot to fish along the Fox River and launch watercraft. The riverwalk cuts through the grounds, offering bikers and pedestrians views of the water. “The riverwalk goes along the river on both sides and it connects you to Saint Charles, Geneva and Aurora,” Hernandez says. “And you have access to all the other little cities along the river through that.” Fabyan Forest Preserve is just to the north of the community, with a Japanese garden on one side and an authentic Dutch windmill on the other.

Walking or biking the mile to downtown Batavia
Downtown Batavia is just over a mile away, accessible for pedestrians through the East Wilson Street bridge. “You can look up and see ‘peace on earth’ spelled out in 12-foot letters on the East Wilson Street pedestrian bridge,” says Shirley Mott, membership and communications coordinator with the Batavia Chamber of Commerce. “It’s an iconic photo spot and folks rally around it. It makes them proud to be part of this community.” People can bike along the riverwalk, but Hernandez highlights that the city itself is safe for cyclists. “It’s a very bicycle-friendly town,” he says. “In the summer, there are people riding all over.” Those driving can take Washington Avenue to downtown, or to Aurora and Geneva on either side of the community. Northwestern Medicine Denlor Hospital is about 4.5 miles north in Geneva. Downtown Chicago and Chicago O'Hare International Airport are both about 35 miles away.
Downtown farmers markets and summer concert series
On Wednesday and Saturday mornings from May to October, the Batavia Farmers’ Market features over 50 vendors, offering fresh produce and baked goods. In the winter, the market moves inside to Grainology Brewstillery. From June to August, River Rhapsody Concert Series is every Wednesday. People bring their own lawn chairs to listen to the free concerts.

Living right next to Aldi headquarters and Fermilab
Aldi’s headquarters is right to the east of Northeast Batavia, which the City of Batavia Economic Development department cites as one of the city's major employers. Additionally, those in the science field also have opportunities just east of this neighborhood. “We are home to Fermilab,” Hernandez says. “We’re the largest natural accelerator in the country, and the other biggest one is in Switzerland.”
