History

Arlington Heights was founded during the early part of the 19th century. Although many early inhabitants were Americans who migrated from points farther east, the town quickly established vibrant communities of German and Eastern European immigrants. For most of the 19th and early 20th century, Arlington Heights was a relatively quiet agricultural area. The construction of the Arlington Park Racetrack turned the town into a regional tourist destination. These days, Arlington Heights is a major employment center in its own right and an important bedroom community for Chicago.

It’s served by a comprehensive network of thoroughfares, including Interstate 90, Illinois Highway 53, U.S. Highway 12 and U.S. Highway 14.

Away from heavily traveled roads, Arlington Heights has a mix of medium- and low-density housing subdivisions and commercial strips.
