Beautiful tree-lined streets and neighborhoods with a variety of housing styles are round throughout the Village. Our churches, temples and houses of worship have multiplied over the years - we now boast sixteen. While most are less visible than our famed Baha'i House of Worship, each plays a vital part in community activities. Wilmette residents enjoy premier municipal services through their property tax. Police, fire and paramedic services are outstanding.
Snow is plowed from sidewalks as well as from streets and alleys.
Loose autumn leaves are collected from curbside piles along residential streets. Refuse service includes weekly pick-up of garbage and numerous recyclables. Our forester manages the care of thousands of public trees. Programs to maintain and upgrade our sewers and streets are ongoing. Wilmette operates its own water plant, which brings water to residents at a favorable rate.
