About Kenilworth
A North Shore village of about 2,514 (2020 census), Kenilworth is one of the smallest and most suburbs in Illinois — lakefront mansions, historic estates and a tiny village center, all wrapped in a private, manicured calm. The vibe is old-money North Shore, anchored by the Joseph Sears School and the Kenilworth Beach, with New Trier as the high school draw.
