Schaumburg, while it has a large population, gives the newcomer the impression that its people don't exist, or have been replaced by shopping malls. The traffic is horrendous,and convoluted due to the enormous amount of retail centers it boasts. It is an expensive city, wrapped up in its place as the shopping center to the world and people I know who have lived there were deeply in debt and conspicuous consumers. It has no soul.
Bad things are the confusing street traffic as well as the huge amount of stoplights. It is possible to see your house and not be able to get your car to it for 35 minutes But the library was excellent, and it is easy to get anywhere in the Chicagoland area from the nearby highway systems.
The current population in Schaumburg is 77,571. The population has increased 5.8% from 2010.
