Bordered on the east by the Skokie Lagoons Forest Preserve with easy access to Edens Expressway, Northfield is ideally located. Just 20 miles north of the loop, the suburb has a great spirit of unity, perhaps because the Village is smaller then any of its neighbors. Northfield retains a country atmosphere with older homes tucked away on spacious wooded lots, surrounded by numerous golf and country clubs within an eight mile radius.
