Frequently Asked Questions

Bloomingdale is a compact village of about 22,000 residents, so many renters weigh it against the neighboring suburbs that share its forest preserves and job centers. These nearby communities stand out for apartment living:

Bloomingdale
Home to 22,382 residents at the 2020 census, Bloomingdale blends a historic Old Town district with the Army Trail Road shopping corridor. Windsor Estate Apartments sits just north of Army Trail Road, close to Bloomingdale Court, Bloomingdale Square, and the 255-acre Meacham Grove Forest Preserve.
 
Roselle
Neighboring Roselle is served by Metra's Milwaukee District West Line, with trains from Roselle station to Chicago Union Station. It is a practical pick for renters who want a rail option for trips downtown.
 
Schaumburg
Schaumburg, to the north, is home to Woodfield Mall and the headquarters of Zurich North America and Paylocity, along with a Motorola Solutions campus. Renting there puts you close to those corporate offices.
 
Glendale Heights
Neighboring Glendale Heights is home to UChicago Medicine AdventHealth GlenOaks, a hospital with a Level II trauma center. The village also offers the GH20 Aquatic Center and Glendale Lakes Golf Club.

Bloomingdale traces its roots to 1833, when the Meacham family settled an area first known as Meacham's Grove, a name the local forest preserve still carries. Today that history sits alongside modern shopping, an active park district, and an easy link to Chicago. Here is what sets the village apart:

Meacham Grove and 175 Miles of County Trails
The Forest Preserve District of DuPage County manages about 26,000 acres and 175 miles of trails, and one of its preserves sits right in Bloomingdale. Meacham Grove covers 255 acres, with 2.5 miles of trails around 32-acre Maple Lake and through the adjacent wetlands, and the lake is stocked for fishing. Closer to home, the Bloomingdale Park District maintains more than 160 acres of open space.
 
Old Town Concerts and Septemberfest
Old Town Park hosts free Tuesday evening summer concerts presented by the Bloomingdale Park District and the village. On the Saturday after Labor Day, Septemberfest lines Third Street with food, crafts, and local vendors. Nearby, the Bloomingdale Park District Museum occupies the village's oldest building, built in 1849.
 
Shopping and Movies on Army Trail Road
Bloomingdale Court and Bloomingdale Square give the village a concentrated retail corridor along Army Trail Road, anchored in part by the Picture Show movie theater. Windsor Estate Apartments sits just north of this stretch, so errands and a night out stay close to home.
 
Chicago Access by Rail and Tollway
Bloomingdale lies about 25 miles west of downtown Chicago. Army Trail Road connects east to I-355, and Metra's Milwaukee District West Line serves neighboring Roselle with trains to Union Station. In Niche's 2026 ratings, Bloomingdale holds an overall A grade, with an A-minus for outdoor activities.

From Windsor Estate Apartments, the Army Trail Road corridor is just to the south, and Old Town's parks and events are a short drive away. Popular spots in and around Bloomingdale include:
