From its charming downtown to its vibrant community spirit, Plainfield offers a unique blend of modern amenities and a welcoming atmosphere. Let’s explore five reasons why people are moving to Plainfield.

  1. Quaint Small-Town Atmosphere: One of the primary draws of Plainfield is its quaint small-town atmosphere. Residents enjoy a sense of community that is often hard to find in larger cities. With tree-lined streets, charming neighborhoods, and local events that bring everyone together, Plainfield provides a welcoming environment for families and individuals alike…while still being close to larger cities like Naperville.

  2. Parks and Recreation: Nature enthusiasts and outdoor lovers will find Plainfield to be a haven of green spaces and recreational opportunities. I have clients who love kayaking, walking around downtown, walking dogs to the various parks and more. The town is home to numerous parks, trails, and outdoor facilities that cater to various interests.

  3. Thriving Local Economy: Nestled in Will County, Plainfield has been experiencing tremendous growth since the mid-1990s…going from a one high school village, to now four Plainfield High Schools (Plainfield North, East, Central and South) and the trajectory continues with more businesses and new construction in the area. The town's strategic location and business-friendly environment have attracted a diverse range of industries (including large companies in Plainfield and those in the neighboring towns as well). Drive up/down Rt. 59 and you’ll see all dining and shopping options.

  4. Community Events and Festivals: Many Plainfield residents participate in the town's lively community events and festivals. From Plainfield Cruise Nights to the Plainfield Hometown Irish Parade and the Annual Community Homecoming Parade among others, these events not only provide entertainment but also foster a strong sense of community among the town's residents.

  5. A Variety of Housing Options: From spacious luxury homes, lakefront homes and townhomes in the Lakelands, established subdivisions, clubhouse/pool communities, new construction, townhomes, condos and newer high-end apartments, Plainfield offers many housing options. Many buyers we work with usually look in both Plainfield and south Naperville - with each community offering something different! Whether you are looking to sell in Plainfield and/or buy a new construction home or an existing home in one of Plainfield’s many communities, it’s so important to work with a Real Estate Professional who truly knows the local market.
