Nice warm pool. Great YMCA. Lockers all work. Facilities are real good. One of my favorite Ys.
There’s always machines I can work at. It’s kept very clean and people are very nice there and helpful and it’s my favorite place to work out. Thank you for everything you do.
It's very cozy and family place.
Friendly, all inclusive, and plenty of programs.
Friendly, respectful place with up to date equipment.
The woman who was supporting the EGym was phenomenal and went above and beyond!
I love the place, the people are great and really helpful. I feel very comfortable. I get access to what I need cause the schedule is actually updated to what really happens unlike downtown.
I love the e machine and all the free weights that they have along with all the other awesome stuff that they have would definitely recommend the Y
I like the community. Our morning workouts start off our day in a meaningful way.
My daughter loves the staff and activities. I love the communication, staff and program.
Lots of workout equipment, great locker room facility and helpful staff.
Mr Austin is great with the kids!
Love the quality programming and the fun, family atmosphere. Best Y around!
The people. Mrs Bri is the best. She is so great with the social emotional stuff with my (rather sensitive) son. The team there really exudes warmth towards the kids and this puts them at ease.
The staff! They are absolutely wonderful. My son loves to attend the morning program. Keep doing what they are doing....they are very much appreciated!!
The staff at Cicero Elementary YMCA are absolutely amazing!
It’s convenient and a fun atmosphere
The staff is very friendly and they’ve built a great relationship with our son.
Warm pool, good exercise, nice instructors.
This particular YMCA gives me more of a homey feeling compared to other locations. I feel very comfortable at The North Area Y.
Pickleball and swimming!
Staff are kind and helpful during the time that I go, M-F 5:45am-7:00am.
The e-gym and the treadmills. Also, the friendliness of the person who showed us around.
Great classes
I love the staff and the variety of classes. I like that the Y supports causes that help people who don’t have as much as some other people.
I’m not completely thrilled with the necessity of having to sign up in advance for Pool classes, although I understand it. The Y is getting very crowded and that makes it difficult for me to use the facilities and the pool easily.
Love the Y! Found the times that work best for me.
Its closer to my home.
The classes!

The casual no judgement attitude of the staff and the members make you feel welcome.
