The opening of the Six Flags Great America amusement park brought new development to Gurnee in 1976. Now with the construction of Gurnee Mills super-mall, additional growth has nearly doubled the population since 1980. New housing and industrial developments promise even greater expansion for the future.

Transportation
The Tri-State Tollway (I-294) is just minutes from the village. Commuters may catch the Milwaukee District line in nearby Libertyville or the Chicago & Northwestern line in the adjacent community of Waukegan, for a 65-minute trip into the city.

Schools
Elementary students attend either District 50 or 56 schools. Both districts provide gifted programs. High school students attend Warren Township High School, District 121.

Shopping
Gurnee houses a 300-acre business park, in addition to three small shopping and business centers. Gurnee Mills is the new regional super-mall providing nearly two miles of retail and manufacturers’ outlets.

Recreation
The Gurnee Park District sponsors a variety of annual events, often to raise money for special causes. Six Flags Great America Amusement Park is located in the village.
