Hobson West, Naperville
A Naperville, IL neighborhood: what the housing is, what is nearby, and what has closed there.
Hobson West is a subdivision located just southwest of downtown Naperville, established in the 1970s. The housing consists predominantly of custom-built two-story homes, split-levels, and ranches on mature tree-lined streets near the West Branch DuPage River corridor.
Homes in Hobson West
Built largely in the late 1970s and 1980s, the neighborhood features two-story colonial and transitional single-family houses. Homes typically range from 2,400 to 3,800 square feet on mature, third-acre lots along curvilinear interior streets with attached two-car garages.
Hobson West sits inside Naperville, so the Naperville market report is the right read on prices and pace; the figures beside this are the town's, not the neighborhood's.
