    5/5 Kathy P. on Mar 11, 2025

    Moved here in Sept of 2024. I'm loving it here. Staff is great, maintenance has responded quickly when I needed them. I love the assigned indoor parking. It's quiet. Great workout room. So much cleaner than my old place. Can't wait for the Pool to open!

    Living in Wheaton, IL

    Wheaton is a small city located about 30 miles west of Chicago. Ranked as one of the safest cities to live in the U.S., it’s a great place for renters looking for an affordable and calm community. It’s also home to several colleges and universities, including Wheaton College, one of the oldest liberal arts colleges in the country. Wheaton has a continental climate, with hot, humid summers and cold, snowy winters. Average temperatures here range from 30°F to 85°F. Because of its location in the Midwest, Wheaton is also subject to thunderstorms, tornadoes and occasional blizzards. That said, residents also enjoy plenty of sunny days, offering the chance to explore the city’s numerous parks, natural preserves and recreational facilities. Plus, Wheaton is also a golfer’s haven, home to some of the most popular golf courses in the state.

    Renting in Wheaton, IL

    The rental market in Wheaton is split by State Route 38, which cuts right through the middle of the city. Rentals in the north are typically smaller apartments for rent with lower rent prices. These rental units are concentrated around Wheaton University, so they’re mostly populated with university students. In contrast, the southern part has spacious, single-family homes and townhomes with luxury amenities and higher rent prices. These are closer to schools, golf courses, and parks, so families and young professionals are often the primary types of renters in these neighborhoods. Notably, the lease agreement should define the responsibility for maintaining the property, paying utilities, late rent fees and other important matters. While the state doesn’t regulate the limit, security deposits are typically one month’s rent. Additionally, when terminating the lease, the renter or landlord should provide 30 days’ written notice.
