The village features established neighborhoods like Shorewood Glen and River Crossing, plus newer developments such as Edgewater and Lakewood Springs. Residents enjoy outdoor recreation at Hammel Woods Forest Preserve and West Shore Park, which offers scenic river views and walking trails.
The Shorewood-Troy Public Library serves as a community hub, while everyday conveniences are found along Black Road and Route 59. Shopping and entertainment options in neighboring Joliet, Plainfield, and Channahon are just minutes away. Whether you're drawn to the peaceful riverside setting or the easy commute options, Shorewood offers an appealing home base in Chicago's southwestern suburbs.

Apartment Finder utilizes the industry's largest and most complete database of real-time rents and availabilities to help you find an amazing deal on your next rental.
Apartment communities change their rental rates often - sometimes multiple times a day. We track the changes and keep you up to date when a rental rate decreases.
"Best value" units are located in buildings rated three stars or higher. We label apartment rentals that are priced significantly less than similar high-quality units nearby.
Apartment communities regularly advertise deals for new residents. Whether it's a move-in special or a free tv, we locate the rentals that offer a little something extra when you sign your lease.
