About This Neighborhood

About Centex

Centex takes its name from the builder whose homes shaped much of Elk Grove Village, and the subdivision is a showcase of the practical, well-framed floor plans that made the company a Chicago-area fixture in the 1960s.

Its long-established blocks and mature trees give the neighborhood a settled feel, while proximity to the village core keeps parks, shopping, and schools within an easy reach.
