Properties in Genoa

Genoa offers a wide variety of housing styles, from stately older homes built primarily around the turn of the century, to modern ranch, contemporary and two-story designs built in increasing numbers in recent years.

There has been a steady movement of people from the Chicago suburbs to DeKalb County since the late 1990’s, searching for small communities where they can put down roots, raise their families and enjoy a less hectic life style. In towns like Genoa, they can find a sense of community and caring.

To meet the need for more housing in the Genoa area, several developments have been annexed to the city, including Derby Estates, Riverbend, Willow Glen and Oak Creek.

By Grainger offers 55+ age restricted housing within Riverbend. Click here to view their website.
