Home to the Chicago Bulls practice center, the community has taken advantage of the Lake Cook and Waukegan business corridors to grow commercially. An impressive newer firehouse and improvements and additions to the library, schools, train stations and streets all demonstrate Deerfield’s dedication to enhancing the lifestyle of its residents. Both Metra and the Milwaukee Road trains make regular stops in Deerfield, and with the addition of a new train station on Lake Cook Road, transportation has been made even more convenient.

 

Major employers in the immediate area include Allstate Insurance, Baxter Healthcare, NutraSweet Co., and Walgreens. A nice selection of chain stores as well as unique specialty stores accommodate Deerfield shoppers, and the community’s central location makes it convenient to a number of major malls. The Deerfield Park District is reputed to be one of the most efficient and most varied in the Chicago area.
