hoffman il: Hoffman Estates Illinois - Village Profile and wide open spaces! - 07/12/11 07:26 PM
Hoffman Estates has a quiet suburban setting, an abundance of open space and a wide variety of recreational and educational opportunities that make it a great place to live. Some 35% (approximately 4,000 acres) of land is in forest preserves, parks and golf courses, so open places abound.
