School system access in this Naperville neighborhood

When it comes to talking about the advantages of living in the Brook Crossing neighborhood in Naperville, John Stich, a Realtor with Worth Clark Realty, says two major factors come to mind: “Homes are lower priced in this neighborhood, as compared to other areas of Naperville, and the school system is top-notch,” he says. “Voters recently approved a $420 million bond referendum to make improvements throughout the school district. That’s a lot of money, but people insisted that there continue to be an investment in the schools.” The neighborhood is 5 miles south of downtown Naperville and about 40 miles southwest of Chicago.

Two schools in the Brook Crossing neighborhood

Living in Brook Crossing means access to Indian Prairie Community School District 204, an A-plus-rated district according to Niche. It’s also the 29th-best school district in the United States out of over 10,000. Clow Elementary and Gregory Middle School are within the neighborhood and receive A-plus ratings. Neuqua Valley High School is also rated an A-plus and has an average 98% graduation rate. Students have several organizations to consider joining, including Youth and Government and Girls Who Code clubs. “There is a lot of turnover in this neighborhood. People will live here, send their kids through the school system and then put their house up for sale,” Stich says. “They don’t mind paying the larger property tax bill for being in the school district.” Wheatland Salem Christian Academy is a private kindergarten in the Wheatland Salem Church on 95th Street.

Competitive home prices for Naperville

The neighborhood started to rise in the 1980s, as developers built various four-bedroom homes in new subdivisions. “The same builder built them, so many have identical floor plans,” Stich says. “On the outside, there are differences, so it’s not like every home on every block looks the same.” Many of the designs are contemporary traditional, with some split-level. Price ranges go from $370,000 to $800,000, with a few large homes in the Sutton Place subdivision selling for over a million. “A four-bedroom house in a nearby neighborhood may go for $675,000, while a fully renovated house here is under $600,000,” he adds. “For those that need updating, the price is around $450,000. That’s an excellent price for Naperville.” While the area is mostly comprised of large single-family homes that often span more than 2,000 square feet, the community also includes a small townhouse community with more affordable housing options. Only a couple have sold in the last year, both at around $400,000. The CAP crime score index for Brook Crossing is 1, well below the national average of 4.

Brook Crossings Park connects to a larger prairie

At the southeast corner of the neighborhood, Brook Crossings Park is at the corner of 95th Street and Plainfield-Naperville Road. It’s a popular place in the winter due to the sledding hill. But there is also plenty to do when there’s no snow. Goose Lake allows for fishing and a large grassy area where a picnic lunch can be spread out. Springbrook Creek connects to Goose Lake to the south and Springbrook Prairie to the north. The 1,800-acre forest preserve and marsh has trails, a dog park, a place to fly remote-controlled model airplanes and plenty of chances to see wildlife. “We’re lucky to have this place in the middle of a major metropolitan area,” Stich says.
