"Chicago" Magazine has ranked Geneva the seventh "best suburb to call home" in the northern Illinois region.
Overall, Geneva was rated the best suburb to live in Kane County and came in second among the western suburbs.
"Geneva may be 45 miles from the Loop, but the western suburb boasts a downtown that feels like Wicker Park," the article stated.
The article highlighted Geneva's historic downtown, mix of local breweries and restaurants, quality housing, and a shoutout to fiscal responsibility demonstrated by the City Council.
