The first settlers came from New England in search of rich farmland. Today, prospective homebuyers choose Palatine because of its “hometown” atmosphere. Palatine offers the perfect combination of country living with a suburban flair. Since 1980, the population has increased by nearly 25 percent and experienced an influx of young families. The village continues to encourage growth and development through new light industry.
