    "Itโ€™s just a quiet sunset residential town. People move here because of the school districts. Thatโ€™s the main incentive that draws people in, since thatโ€™s where most of our property taxes go. Itโ€™s mostly family oriented. "
  • Forman.ellie
    "Walkable to Metra train to city โ€” then about a 40-minute train ride. Also close drive to highway with approx 40-60-minute drive to city. "
  • Pankapanka52
    "Itโ€™s a sundown town. The schools are good. However, thereโ€™s not much diversity. If you have a car, you have everything you need and youโ€™re close to 94 and 294, which makes it ideal to commute from the northern suburbs. Itโ€™s quiet for the most part and thereโ€™s not much going on. Itโ€™s mostly a residential town. You only live here if you have kids."
  • Tsdaniels11
    "People have respect for other people, property and diversity. Every town has its clicks and issues but overall itโ€™s a good place to live."
