2021 Map of Streamwood

About this map

Streamwood and its neighboring Cook and Kane County communities are captured here during a period of sustained suburban development. The landscape is characterized by its numerous natural and man-made water features, from the expansive Crabtree Lake in the north to the Bode Lakes and Lake of the Coves tucked into residential clusters. Between the larger hubs of Elgin and Schaumburg, smaller localities like Sutton, Spaulding, and Barrington Center retain their distinct identities amidst the grid of evolving transit corridors like Dundee Rd and Higgins Rd. Genealogists and local researchers can locate the Greve Cem near the eastern boundary and the expansive Lakewood Memorial Park to the south. The presence of the Bluff Spring Fen near the southwestern edge provides a contrast to the dense residential layouts of Hanover Park and Hoffman Estates, showing the preservation of specific wetland environments within the modern suburban sprawl.
