The Village of Bannockburn is a small municipal government serving residents and local businesses in the North Shore region near Chicago. As a local administrative body, it provides services and guidance to business owners seeking to establish or expand operations within the community. It highlights convenient access to major highways and competitive tax rates as favorable conditions for commerce. The community is characterized by multi-acre parcels and a rural-residential atmosphere focused on safety and quality of life. Located about 26 miles from downtown Chicago, Bannockburn sits next to North Shore communities such as Lake Forest and Highland Park and covers roughly 1,300 acres. Its founding traces to a native of Bannockburn, Scotland, who envisioned a village of country estates. Today the village comprises more than 250 homes on generous lots. A notable recent development is the designation of Bannockburn School as a Blue Ribbon school by the U.S. Department of Education.
