Welcome to Arlington Heights, Illinois.
Arlington Heights is a village located in Cook County, Illinois and a northwestern suburb of Chicago and about 15 miles west of Lake Michigan. A 2003 recount gave the village a population of 76,422.
The city is best known as the home of Arlington Park (see photo), the world famous horse racing track which began operations in 1927. Feature races include the Breeders' Cup and the Arlington Million. The racetrack is said by many to be one of the finest such facilities in the world.
It is also home to the Metropolis Performing Arts Theatre and highly regarded John Hersey High School. Soccer player Brian McBride lives in and grew up in this town.
Originally known as Dunton, the city changed its name in 1874. The town's past has endured significant hardship that includes the 144" of snowfall in 1979 and the fire that destroyed the original racetrack in 1985. Area recreation includes outings to the Nickol Knoll Golf Club and Arlington Lakes Golf Club.
Arlington Heights is truly a great community with services, location and amenities unmatched in the Chicagoland area.
Located only 25 miles from downtown Chicago, Arlington Heights is a community in Chicago's desirable northwest suburban corridor. A growing downtown skyline, expanding shopping areas and new office parks attest to the Village's vibrancy.
Discover Arlington! Arlington Heights offers something for everyone. You'll find a myriad of shopping and dining options from the very casual to the most sophisticated and eclectic, from the northern tip of uptown, through downtown and to the southern gateway.

Their facilities include 710 acres of land in 58 different park sites, five outdoor neighborhood pools, two golf courses, an indoor aquatic center, two indoor tennis facilities, and Lake Arlington - a 50 acre sailing and fishing lake.
For the finest in live entertainment, the Metropolis Performing Arts Center is the place to go. Located in the downtown area, Metropolis is the home of the Metropolis Youth Symphony, Second City's Traveling Company and a live theater that features jazz, comedy, musicals and drama.
