Welcome to the home page of Chicago Heights, the Crossroads of the Nation. In 1915, when the and Dixie Highways were completed -- intersecting in Chicago Heights -- our community became the Crossroads of the Nation.

Today, our city also is a crossroads of opportunity. Because of its rich history and traditions, Chicago Heights is a good place to live, work, raise a family, get an education and enjoy many recreational and cultural amenities.

Our city's location in the Chicago metropolitan area offers many advantages. Chicago Heights is near Interstate Highways 57, 80 and 94 and just a 35-minute drive from downtown Chicago. Air transportation is available from either O'Hare or Midway Airports. The city's manufacturing region is served by the Union Pacific and Elgin Joliet & Eastern Railroad lines. Several Metra commuter train stations are minutes away, and the regional Pace bus system serves our town.

For a listing of information about Chicago Heights, please see the Index.
