      In Palatine Illinois

Palatine, in Cook County, is an affluent community with over 113,000 people within its borders. It is served by State Highway 53, and US Highways 12 and 14, about 35 miles northwest of Chicago. There are quite a number of events, festivals and attractions in and around Palatine and, of course, there is a wealth of activity in the metro area.

In 1835, the first settlers arrived in what is now Palatine Township. In 1850, the townspeople chose Palatine as its new name.

 
    
 

The moniker Palatine probably originated from the "Palatinate" area along the Rhine River in Germany, the original home of many of the early settlers. By 1866, Palatine was incorporated as a village. A short line railroad, the Palatine, Lake Zurich and Wauconda Railroad was built in 1911, but closed in 1924 after financial troubles and improving roads made them less desirable. Palatine's first subdivision was built just after World War II and was called Palanois Park. Since the 1970s, Palatine has had truly explosive growth.
