Orland Park residents enjoy the best of both worlds --- the amenities of the big city and the excellent quality of life offered in this Chicago suburb.
QUALITY OF LIFE
In 2006 and 2008, the Village of Orland Park was ranked by Money Magazine as one of America's Top 100 Best Places to Live. The magazine stated, "Americans are flocking to places that offer big-city opportunity and amenities - with a lot more green space and a lot less stress. When it comes to a place to live and raise a family, most Americans want two things: the opportunity for themselves and their children to prosper, and a quality of life that lets them enjoy the fruits of their work...."
