Riding out of Deerfield, Illinois

Settlement here began in 1835 under the name “Cadwell’s Corner,” briefly became “Leclair,” and finally took its current name in the 1850s after resident John Millen proposed “Deerfield” — a nod to both his hometown and the deer that still wander the area — winning a close village vote, 17 to 13, over the alternative “Erin.” The village incorporated in 1903 and, according to local records, is now home to about 19,196 residents (2020 Census) on Chicago’s North Shore.

Today Deerfield anchors a cluster of major corporate campuses, including Walgreens Boots Alliance and Baxter Healthcare, alongside its residential neighborhoods. Whether you’re catching an early flight for a business trip or heading out from a quiet North Shore street, our drivers track your flight and hold the $54 flat rate no matter your exact pickup address.

The town that banned kissing at the train station

In 1979, Deerfield’s Metra station had a problem: lingering goodbyes were backing up morning traffic. The village’s solution made national headlines — including a mention in Time magazine — when officials posted “No Kissing” signs at the platform to nudge commuters toward quicker farewells. Decades later, it’s still one of the first stories longtime residents tell about their town.
