Review of Rockford, Illinois


Property Values Exceptional
Star Rating - 12/2/2008
The Rockford area--including neighboring Boone County to the east--is a real bargain when it comes to residential properties. You get much more home and much more land for the dollar than in many similarly sized communities. And the proximity to Chicago, Milwaukee, and Madison makes the Rockford area ideal for easy commutes, access to outstanding arts and cultural venues, and shopping. The small-town feel is an added bonus.
