I’ve been on this sub for a while and I genuinely find the discourse interesting. There’s over 200 suburbs in the Chicagoland area and based on this sub you would think there were only 10 - La Grange, Wheaton, Glen Ellyn, Western Springs, Naperville, Downers Grove, Geneva, St. Charles, Oak Park, Elmhurst.

I’m curious… let’s say you couldn’t pick those suburbs… you are a married person with young kids and commuting to Chicago wasn’t a necessity and you had a budget of up to 650k - where would you move and why? Which area would you avoid and why?

Just looking for some interesting takes.
