North Oswego's suburban feel with proximity to shopping
In one of the area’s fastest-growing cities, North Oswego residents enjoy suburban convenience. The neighborhoods are strictly residential, with several developments around North Oswego offering a different feel and community. Also called Walter Payton Memorial Highway, US Route 34 bisects the community, lined with big box chains and grocery stores. While the rest of the Aurora-Naperville area comes to North Oswego to do their shopping, community residents have the luxury of having this retail corridor just a few minutes away. While North Oswego itself might represent contemporary suburban living in Chicago's smaller cities, downtown Oswego is close by, offering small-town charm with its annual events and local restaurants along the Fox River.

New Traditionals and Colonial Revivals throughout North Oswego
Because North Oswego is a collection of various suburban subdivisions, the different communities have some unique features. The Northampton subdivision’s streets lack sidewalks, but have mature trees shading yards. Professional landscapers create lush gardens with cherry trees and redbuds adding a pop of color in the spring. Meanwhile, the Churchill subdivision on the southern side of US-34 has a more open feel with young saplings along the sidewalks and yards without front gardens. Despite the different atmospheres, most neighborhoods throughout North Oswego feature Colonial Revival and New Traditional homes selling between $300,000 and $600,000. The community also offers some townhouses, selling for closer to $200,000 and $300,000.

Chain restaurants and grocery stores along US-34 in North Oswego
Along US-34, residents can choose between Meijer, Walmart, Aldi and Target, all along this strip alongside big box stores and chain restaurants like Hobby Lobby and Olive Garden. “We have one of the most comprehensive retail corridors in the area. You have pretty much every name brand store and chain restaurant, so convenience-wise, it’s fantastic,” says broker Nathan Brown with Integra Commercial Real Estate and Oswego resident for almost 20 years. “You don’t have to leave Oswego to go anywhere.” In downtown Oswego, 113 Main serves ribs and steak in a modern warehouse setting. Fox Valley Winery has an indoor tasting room and an outdoor patio for nice days, though inside has a stage for live music.

Driving to downtown Oswego along US-34
While US-34 is lined with Oswego’s grocery stores and chains, this thoroughfare also connects North Oswego with downtown, about 2.5 miles away.

Those living closer to this roadway might hear traffic as it passes. For those commuting to downtown Chicago, downtown is about 44 miles away, accessible along I-88.

North Oswego's golf courses and walking trails
Some communities in North Oswego like Stonegate and Northampton have their own neighborhood parks for residents.

Farmers' markets and annual wine tastings in downtown Oswego
Because North Oswego is so close to downtown, residents can head there for the city’s seasonal and annual events. Each May, the community gathers downtown for Wine on the Fox, where they can sample regional wines while listening to live music. “For Wine on the Fox, they’ll block off portions of the downtown area and they’ll have different wines and vineyards come and set up booths,” Brown says. “It’s probably become one of the most well-attended events.” From June to September, the Oswego Country Market brings local produce and baked goods to downtown every Sunday morning. Every June, Prairiefest features a parade, carnival and concerts. “And they usually get some pretty good headliners and names that people will know,” Brown says.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
