Palatine Illinois - More Information
- The northeastern portion of the village is generally more diverse in terms of income and ethnicity than the western and southeastern portions. Hispanics, Asians, and African Americans are all well represented within Palatine's population. Over one hundred languages are spoken in Palatine.
- The Palatine Park District serves 85,000 residents within the Palatine, Rolling Meadows, Arlington Heights, Inverness, Hoffman Estates and Barrington communities. It is governed by five elected Park Commissioners who oversee a professional staff.
The Palatine Park District operates four swimming pools (Family Aquatic Center, Birchwood, Eagle and Willow) for its residents as well as two recreational centers (Community Center & Birchwood). Planning is currently underway for a third rec center at Falcon Park. - George Ela was also one of the first of a wave of pioneers to migrate to northern Illinois following the Black Hawk War. A road which passes through the western edge of Palatine is called Ela in his honor.
The Village of Palatine was founded in 1866. It was built around a station on the new Chicago and North Western Railway. Joel Wood surveyed and laid out the village, earning him the title of Palatine's founder. One of Palatine's original downtown streets is named after Wood.
A short line railroad, the Palatine, Lake Zurich and Wauconda Railroad, was built in 1911, and began full passenger service to Wauconda, Illinois in 1912. The line was finally closed in 1924 after a series of financial misfortunes and the improvement of roads in the area. The PLZ&W provided transportation to Dr. Wilson's Deer Grove Park, just north of Dundee Road in Palatine.
Palatine's first suburb-style subdivision was called Palanois Park, built shortly after World War II. The town has experienced truly explosive growth since the 1970s, part of Chicago's ever-growing suburban sprawl. Palatine was home to the Cook County Fair from 1914 to 1931. The fairgrounds are now a sub-division with a name that pays tribute to Palatine's former fairgrounds.
In 1993, a multiple-homicide--the Brown's Chicken Massacre received national attention.
In 2008, Palatine made news by threatening to secede from Cook County over the latter's sales tax hike; as a result of the tax hike, Palatine's sales tax is 10% - one of the United States' highest sales tax rates.
Palatine has been in the process of revitalizing its downtown area since December 1999. This process has spawned a new passenger train station, a nearby parking garage, and several new condominiums, rowhomes, and commercial buildings.

VA Streamline Benefits
$0 Down
VA loans allow you to finance 100% of the home's value and purchase with $0 down. FHA programs require 3.5% down and other programs require as much as 20% down.
Lower Monthly Payments
VA loans don't require mortgage insurance which saves you money each month. You will also get generally lower rates with a VA Loan.
Easier to Qualify
As many as 80% of veterans and active-duty military members could not have qualified for a conventional loan.
Fixed Rates
Most Veterans choose going with a 30 year fixed rate so they know that their rate won't adjust to the point where they can no longer afford their home.
