Lincolnshire Best City For Business

The Village of Lincolnshire, IL was named the 3rd Best City in the US to Start a Business in! We at Van Vlissingen and Co. are continually proud to call Lincolnshire, IL and the South Lake County community our home. Lincolnshire is known for its booming business community. Entrepreneurs know Lincolnshire as both a hub for startups and traditional corporations. Major employers in Lincolnshire include AonAlight, Zebra Technologies, Hydraforce, and Sysmex.

Strong Community in the Village of Lincolnshire

Besides large corporations in the village; Lincolnshire’s unique location, culture, and top school district, inspire a vibrant startup community. The Village of Lincolnshire promotes a number of annual festivals throughout the year, including the Taste of Lincolnshire, the Lincolnshire Art Festival, and their “Red, White, and Boom” festival on the Fourth of July. Located in suburban Chicagoland, Lincolnshire is advantageously situated nearby O’hare International Airport, and the North, North-West, and Western Suburbs. Consequently, Lincolnshire’s location gives the village access to a large labor pool and several transportation hubs.

Educated Workforce Close to Transit Hubs

The labor pool and startup community of Lincolnshire benefits from a wealth of public secondary, and post-secondary educational opportunities. Lincolnshire has three school districts;  Aptakisic-Tripp Community Consolidated School District 102, Lincolnshire-Prairie View School District 103 and Adlai E. Stevenson High School District 125. All three school districts are recognized for their nationally high achieving student bodies and faculty. Further aiding the area’s entrepreneurial environment and labor force, Lincolnshire benefits from the presence of  DeVry University’s Keller School of Management and the Southlake Campus of the College of Lake County. Both campuses bolster South Lake County’s strong labor force.

With the Village of Lincolnshire’s unique location, culture, and top school district, the Lincolnshire’s business community is experiencing continued growth.
