- Paul O.

"There's no town like Kenilworth. It has the down-to-earth feel of a true midwestern place but, truly, it isn't like any other place. Outstanding schools, on the lake, a 20 minute drive to Chicago, abundant parks and a little night life nearby. What more could you ask for?"
- peter s. l.
- 10y ago
"I live in Kenilworth and just can't say enough good things about it! The schools are top notch, everyone is involved in the community, the beach and parks are uncrowded, the architecture is first rate, there's easy access to the city, and the crime is frankly negligible. "
- peter s. l.
- 12y ago
"Obviously, Kenilworth has been the most expensive suburb of Chicago for generations. You get what you pay for. The schools are exemplary, there is NO crime, and the quality of your neighbors tends to be rather high. All in all, people have been willing to pay to live in Kenilworth for many very good reasons!"
