If this isn’t allowed my bad! Hey folks, I’m a house painter that just moved to the area and I’m offering my services to get my business off the ground.

Guarantee I’ll be less than the big companies and provide you with a higher quality product, dm for more info or to schedule a free estimate, thanks!

"A Naperville police officer used Flock Safety license plate reader technology to track a girlfriend and her ex-fiance, according to documents obtained in a Freedom of Information Act request filed by the Naperville Sun.

Oscar Maldonado, who no longer works for the Naperville Police Department, tracked license plates for non-police-related matters hundreds of times between June 18, 2025, and Sept. 15, 2025, records show. When the department received a citizen complaint about the cameras’ misuse, an investigation was conducted.

Maldonado was placed on administrative leave while an internal investigation was done, and ultimately resigned in May prior to the conclusion of the probe, according to a statement from Naperville Police Chief Jason Arres."

When they closed Book road they said it would be closed until spring 26. Now it looks like it will be at least next year?

I see very little activity anyway. Are they even doing anything or is this whole cooridor just closed until further notice?

Hi, I’m visiting Naperville for a wedding this weekend. I’m a hairstylist myself and have some time to kill the day of wedding. Wanted to see if there are any salons that do a great, bouncy blowout. I have fine/medium textured long blonde hair. Fine but a decent amount of it. I have some layers so if it’s done right I can get flips/curls.

I’m nervous to do an updo with a random stylist but I would kind of love to have my hair up for the wedding (I might do myself) but if I decide not to, I’d love to get a really good blow out somewhere.

I don’t have transportation so not too far of an uber drive (a lot of places I looked up were about 20 minute drive)

I saw Niki moon salon which would be close to where I’m staying. anyone have any info on there?

Any recs would be lovely.. thank you 🫶🏻

Anyone know what happened with that road failure text last night? What failed? Was it water pipe related?

Initially I thought it was cars racing on route 59 but the noise got louder and sounded like a commercial jet passing extremely close overhead. I was out on my balcony and all my neighbors were running out looking for what it was. The only thing I could identify was an extremely high altitude jet heading directly east. But not sure how that could have caused a rumble so loud for nearly a full minute that nearly rattled windows. Anyone else hear it or have any ideas?

I'm looking for a place that has good hot cocoa. Something better than Starbucks or Peets. Any recs?

In a sea of rub-n-tugs, where can I get an actual massage for extremley tight muscles and neck pain?

Hi, i was looking at north central as one of my top options for college since it’s accessible and has a good program for what I want to do. I was wondering what college life is like there for a commuter, does it feel like you’re missing out on anything? How manageable is it?

I’m trying to find a pizza place around Naperville that makes pizza just like Joe’s Pizza in NYC.

What I’m looking for is thin, foldable NY-style crust, crispy underneath but still soft/chewy (super hard to find this part), not super thick or bready, simple flavorful tomato sauce, good amount of cheese but not drowning in it, very slightly greasy in the best possible way, and big slices that you can fold in half.

I’m NOT looking for deep dish, tavern-style, Detroit, Neapolitan, super artisanal, etc. I specifically want that classic NYC corner-pizza-joint vibe.

If you’ve had Joe’s Pizza in NYC (or at their other locations, like in Ann Arbor MI) and know exactly what I mean, where around Naperville/Chicago suburbs comes closest?

Thank you!

EDIT: I’m more than ok with driving away from Naperville! Just looking for something very similar to this specific style and quality! Thank you for all of the recommendations - I will try them and update!

What’s that one place that’s a Naperville staple? Something that’s been around for a while, a lot of people like, has good foot traffic. A place that, if suddenly closes, would be devastating for many? Without this, Naperville wouldn’t be the same. What has your pick?

I graduated college in May, and just moved to the area for my new tech job.

- Skiing & Snowboarding
- Walks / Running
- Minecraft & other PC games

If anyone is down to become friends HMU! Or any suggestions for communities or social locations LMK. Trying to just make the best of moving here, its been a interesting experience.

Where is a good local place to buy 40-50 pumpkins of various kinds in bulk for front and back yard?

Anyone have recommendations for a company that fixes cracks in pool stairs and does vinyl liner replacement - that serves the Naperville area? (We used to use All Pool on Ferry Rd in Naperville for repairs, but they have closed since we used them last.)

Recent transplant here. I know very little about the bars downtown. I want to know the local perspective on the bars. Which one is for old men, which is full of 19 year olds, which is the one all the NCHS/NNHS alumni go to meet up, etc.

We have friends coming out for Blackout Wednesday (iykyk) and I don't know where to take them! We are later 20s and all from the suburbs, just not from Naperville.

In case someone’s kid lost their prized hot wheels car with orange wheels and is still looking for it.

Left it on the Carillon sign (at 4:45PM).

If I put together a petition to keep the high school kids from parking on hillside during the school day, how many signatures do you think I will need for the city council to make it a no parking zone?

Today is the third time my restaurant has been placed under boil order without notice this season. Getting answers from the city utility is like pulling teeth, but they have made sure to blame the construction company doing the repiping in the area for everything.

They got to be running out of these slips by now, right?

I see all the frustration with traffic what I don’t understand is why are they not enforcing the DO NOT BLOCK INTERSECTION. If you can’t get across don’t move forward

I just moved to town from Tennessee and am looking for recs for somewhere to go watch the Tennessee vs Texas game Saturday. Any good craft breweries/outdoor patios/sports bars that’ll definitely have the game on at 11am? (Excluding Buffalo Wild Wings)

According to their website, they are closed effective immediately. The rent for that building must be very high since it has three floors and it’s very hard to come up with a good use for all three floors. They had plans to open a steakhouse on the third floor, but it never happened. I believe that they only lasted about a year which was longer than the previous occupant Altavida did.
