Buffalo Grove sits on a county line. Roughly three-quarters of the village lies in Lake County and the southern quarter in Cook County, about 30 miles northwest of the Chicago Loop and 20 miles north of O’Hare. Its name comes from an English rendering of the Potawatomi name for Buffalo Creek, which still winds through town beside a forest preserve. Incorporated in 1958 with just 164 residents, the village boomed in the 1970s and counted about 43,200 people at the 2020 Census, making it the largest of its immediate neighbors.

The village is a grid of residential neighborhoods, office parks and shopping centers threaded by major arterials. Metra’s North Central Service has stopped at the Buffalo Grove station since 1996, about 32 miles from Union Station.

Roads on camera

The 85 cameras for Buffalo Grove are Illinois DOT traffic cameras from the Gateway traveler information network used by Getting Around Illinois and Travel Midwest. Expect intersection and corridor views on the state routes that cross the village: Milwaukee Avenue (IL-21) on the east side, McHenry Road (IL-83) slicing diagonally across, Dundee Road (IL-68) in the Cook County portion, and Half Day Road (IL-22) to the north. Lake-Cook Road, the east–west line that roughly marks the county boundary, is another busy corridor here. Images are refreshed stills, so motion is captured as a sequence of snapshots rather than video.

The village keeps Central Time. If you want to see congestion, weekday mornings toward the Edens and Tri-State and late afternoons heading home are the reliable windows. On winter nights the cameras show how well plows are keeping up, and spring thunderstorms can bring sudden downpours that slow everything. Evenings go dark early after the November clock change.

Arlington Heights, Wheeling and Long Grove border the village, and cameras there may also show up within the radius. Long Grove’s historic crossroads village, with its covered bridge, is only a few minutes west.
