    "Nothing really maybe just the Crest hill library and that it is close to the mall and other shops. I really don't know what else makes this special. the water bill is outrages here a month. Almost feels as it is being tapped. I just don't recommend anyone moving in this town. The local park does not feel safe that it is in front of the school. People linger around to ask you for money and they don't care if you are with your kids. "
