| Naperville probably has the most, and the most diverse, housing stock. The high schools are extremely good, as are most of the varsity sports teams, if that is important to you.
Winnetka is very expensive, and is the home of New Trier high school. Old homes, right on the lake.
Stevenson High School is further west of the north shore, a more rural feeling area.
The western suburbs have more of a closer to the city, old suburb feel -- places like Hinsdale, Western Springs, LaGrange. Can be very expensive.
There are now more options in the city itself with very, very good magnet high schools like Northside Prep and Whitney Young.
Can't really say too much more without knowing where you will be working, whether you want to be near commuter rail, and a ballpark figure on what you want to spend on housing. PM me if you'd like. |
