The housing market appears to slowly be rebounding in Buffalo Grove, as home prices begin to inch up, according to a Crain's interactive map on area housing prices. 

The one-year change in prices for Buffalo Grove homes is up 2.4 percent, according to Crain's. Still, the five year change in prices is at a deficit. In Barrington, the cost of a home is on average 23.1 percent less today than it was five years ago, according to Crain's interactive map.

The Chicago suburb that saw the biggest increase is Austin — located just west of the city — which saw a 16.6 percent change over the past year in home prices while Palos Park saw the largest decrease in home prices at -6.2 percent, according to a different Crain's graphic.
