    "Safe enough, lots of families and a couple of nice parks for kids but no indoor recreation. Gets dusty due to being so close to the quarry but there are bike trails and forest preserves nearby and a water park in the summer. I'd stay if it was in a better HS district. "

Great since everyone is soo down to earth, and everyone works hard for their familys and homes. one of very last towns that still believe in working man wanting a nice place to live, have ur family grow up, and be proud of the fact u live in a town that everyones very old school, a lot of older people that raised kids in the 60s and 70's and now are enjoying their retirement in their homes that they raised there kids, everyone is truly humble, trusting, caring, and very approachable to ask questions, or if you just move in, there happy to see a new family! 😊"
