About This Neighborhood

About Mill Creek

Mill Creek is one of Buffalo Grove's established favorites — 1970s and '80s family homes threaded along the Buffalo Creek greenway, where parks and paths are built into the neighborhood's fabric rather than added later.

It delivers the village's core promise: well-kept family housing, excellent schools, and green space out the back door.
