Flossmoor has deep roots in the sport of golf. The city has been around the since mid-1800s, but people didn't even notice it on the map until several golf and recreational clubs were built there. Then, people started to notice, and they started flocking south from Chicago to enjoy all the nice property and fun recreational opportunities available. Go figure!
Flossmoor is a place that is highly tied into the golf and country club scene. South of Chicago, the town has long been a place for quiet and upscale living outside of the city. The list of notable current and former residents of the town is long and impressive. Some of them include Buddy Guy, George Stigler, Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, Muhammad Ali, George Schultz, Xavier Fulton, and Chad Smith. Today, however, you don't have to be famous to be happy calling Flossmoor home. It would help certainly, to have an appreciation for sports, leisure and outdoor activities. But Flossmoor has lots of beautiful real estate and lovely rental houses, and anyone that likes a place with a slower pace of life than the nearby big city of Chicago will be happy calling this small town home.

Balconies are a coveted amenity for many renters looking for high-rise views and opportunities for fresh air. However, you should keep in mind that balconies often come with restrictions.
Before signing a lease, ask about how many people can be on the balcony at once. Also, ask about whether you’re allowed to store a bike or other items.
You’ll also want to know about any maintenance schedules. Using your balcony as storage could result in fines and intervention from your property management.
Keep in mind that not all balconies are created equally. You may discover the views of the parking area are less than optimal or reduce your overall privacy.
Balconies can also get messy with debris, foliage, dirt, and pollen depending on your location. Renters are typically responsible for any clean-up and basic balcony upkeep.
Regardless of the issues to keep in mind, balconies are usually a big win for Flossmoor renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
