Kane County
Real estate in Elgin, IL.
Elgin
Elgin has some of the most substantial historic housing stock in the metro area — whole districts of Victorians and early-century frame houses on hills above the river, much of it still intact.
It is also one of the most Spanish-speaking cities in the county, with a working downtown and two Metra stops. The gap between a restored historic house and one that has been divided and neglected is as wide here as anywhere Tony works.
What the housing looks like
- Victorians and early-century houses in the historic districts
- Two-to-four unit buildings near the center
- Post-war and newer subdivisions on the outskirts
