    "LaGrange is a beautiful town with a vibrant downtown area that has many fantastic restaurants and shops. The two historic train stations allow for a quick 20 minute ride to Union station. It feels incredibly safe and people are out and about at all times of the day. The schools are some of the best in Illinois and people who live here clearly prioritize family and education. I wouldn’t move anywhere else. "
