Welcome To Wilmette
Incorporated in 1872, after the Great Chicago Fire, Wilmette is considered one of the most ideal settings in the Chicagoland area. Known for its public schools; proximity to Lake Michigan and its beautiful beaches; excellent transportation; large, well-manicured trees; spacious custom built Tudors, Victorians and Colonial style homes, this quiet residential Village is extremely popular with wealthy executive home buyers. Two-stories, split levels, ranches, bungalows and apartments (both condominiums and rental) can also be found in this exclusive community, which has been designated "Tree City USA" nine times.
