Community

The Chicago Southland region is both urban and rural, blue and white-collar, affluent and middle class, and truly epitomizes what is meant by the "land of opportunity”.  The children of Chicago Heights are well served by a public school system supplemented by a Catholic high school and five Catholic elementary schools. Most area teens attend either Bloom or Bloom Trail high schools in district 206. The district's high schools offer college preparatory programs, and Bloom has vocational training and work-study programs.   Olympia Fields is a wonderful community to live, work and play.  Located just 27 miles south of the Chicago Loop, the well-maintained neighborhoods offer a wide variety of elegant custom-built homes along winding, safe, quiet tree-lined streets.  Nestled amongst award-winning school districts and world-class entertainment and dining, Olympia Fields holds its own as a diverse community where old-world charm meets contemporary values.
