Lake Villa Township Park (Caboose Park)
Lake Villa Township, located in northwest Lake County, was established in 1913 and spans approximately 26 square miles, serving a population of around 39,748 as of 2018. The township, which includes parts of several neighboring communities, has evolved from its agricultural roots into a landscape marked by residential subdivisions and commercial developments, while still preserving significant green spaces through the Lake County Forest Preserves.
Historically, Lake Villa Township's economy was driven by resorting and seasonal industries like ice cutting, especially during the early 20th century. The township's development has been shaped by its strategic location along the former Wisconsin Central Railroad, which facilitated growth and connectivity in the region.
