Brookfield Reviews
Rating 4.03 out of 5 65 reviews
My parents used to reside there, and it's renowned for its exceptional safety and security. During my time there, I never felt anything less, making it a remarkable experience to share with others.
I really like Brookfield as it is a very safe and fun place to live. Ever since I was young, I have always loved living here because there are parks I could go to with my parents and many good restaurants around. I like how close it is to Chicago and how easy it is to get there. I also appreciate how safe Brookfield is because I haven't ever had the feeling of being unsafe at night or anything like that.
I enjoy Brookfield because it is a very great and safe community! Also, I have met so many nice people and I have been Involved in Many volunteer activities.
