Scottsdale

With its winding streets, cul-de-sacs and ranch-style homes, Scottsdale brings a little touch of the suburbs to the southwest side of Chicago. Neighborhood parks and playlots dot the blocks, offering a place get in some exercise, participate in sports and let the kids burn off excess energy. While Scottsdale's interior residential streets are quiet and sheltered, Cicero Avenue (Scottsdale's high-traffic border street) is chockfull of different restaurants, businesses and shops. Indulge your tastebuds with an array of international cuisine, or allow your eye for fashion to peruse the racks at the selection of furniture and clothing stores in the area.

Scottsdale is a part of Ashburn.
