About Greenwood

Greenwood is a quiet, rural McHenry County village known for its wide-open fields and peaceful pace. While the community officially incorporated in 1995 to preserve its countryside charm, its roots go back to the mid-1800s, centered around the historic 1859 Old Greenwood School. Residents enjoy large lots, quiet country roads, and plenty of open space, all while staying just a short drive from neighboring Woodstock’s shops, restaurants, and commuter train into Chicago.
