Fankfort is considered the premier community of Will County and the southwest metropolitan region.
High quality, distinctive housing and a balanced blend of home styles, sizes and prices, contribute to Frankfort’s recognition as the “Jewel of the South Suburbs.” This distinction was recognized with the Southland’s Reader’s Choice award for “Best Community” in 2003.
With an estimated average home value of $329,200 (based on 2000 census), home values average 15 to 20 percent higher than comparable homes in neighboring communities ensuring a valuable return on property investments.
New home developments emphasize unique building features, materials and architecture to insure “anti-monotony” designs throughout the community. In addition, Village ordinances require that new homesites be a minimum of 20,000 square feet in size, thus emphasizing an “open space” approach to the continuing growth the community has experienced. Homes in the historic downtown area are well preserved to reflect the 1890 community character. Cozy single-family homes capture Frankfort’s historic charm on streets shaded by long-matured trees.
Traditional, well-maintained neighborhoods provide a safe environment for all residents. Frankfort community leaders have also focused on the needs of families while preserving the “wide open” green space of its parks and recreational areas. Recognizing the diverse growth of the community, Frankfort offers a wide variety of townhomes and condominiums that reflect the community’s quality and charm in a maintenance-free environment. Future developments focus on the over 55 demographic without sacrificing style and convenience.
Considered the premier community of Will County and the southwest metropolitan region, Frankfort has just the right home to meet your family’s lifestyle needs.
