Great street for small families and first-time home buyers

Georgetown Circle, Aurora, Illinois, United States

4.5/5
My wife and I have lived in a townhome on Georgetown Circle for two years now, and it is exactly what we were looking for. Life here is quiet, maintenance free, and slower than in surrounding areas. While there is a great deal of privacy, neighbors aren't af...

I would live here in a hearbeat

Chicago, Illinois, United States
By AJ on Aug 25, 2008
5/5
I've spent quite a bit of time in Chicago on business and I must say it is a city I could easily live in. The first time I visited, i thought it going to be quite a dirty, scummy city, but as it turns out I was completely wrong. Very clean streets, and very...

Great Place for a Great Home

Glendale Heights, Illinois, United States
By CarbonFX on Aug 07, 2008
4/5
Glendale Heights - a small town west of I355

The town itself is a rather small peaceful town with a population of under 40,000.

There are not many special attractions in this town other then a carnival and circus that come annually. There are a handful o...

6101 Sheridan Road - Where Life's a Beach

N Sheridan Road, Chicago, Illinois, United States
By Shein on Aug 06, 2008
4.5/5
East Point Tower is a great place to live. An architecturally interesting building of 160 units, there are 4 units per floor. The pool is on the roof - 42nd floor. Great place to be for the Air & Water Show and fireworks. The views are amazing from every r...

Rundown ghetto of a suburb

Streamwood, Illinois, United States
By lsims on Aug 06, 2008
2/5
What can I say about Streamwood, IL...It's definitely a city that I was glad to leave behind. Many leave the big city to escape to a nice family-friendly safe haven in the Suburbs. I'm afraid that you will find many of the same problems in this small town....

One Block Street

Rains Street, Murphysboro, Illinois, United States
By Murphysburger on Aug 06, 2008
3/5
This is a mixed one-block street. Some nicer homes, some dumps, and a trailer park borders the
east end. Fairly quiet, no sidewalks but a wooded lot adds a nice touch.

Alright place for 20 somethings

N Sheridan Road, Chicago, Illinois, United States
By Fanteisimo on Aug 06, 2008
3.5/5
Cheap-ish rent with a few quality restaurants/bakeries. The halfway house is scary looking but mostly harmless.

One of the worlds greatest cities

Chicago, Illinois, United States
By bullsfan123 on Aug 03, 2008
4/5
Chicago is a city often underrated and overlooked in favor of New York City or Los Angeles. I can say that once you have been here you will appreciate all that Chicago has to offer, from some of the most beautiful neighborhoods to the great lakes which provide...

A wonderful place to raise a family

Mokena, Illinois, United States
By wiggleworm7 on Jul 31, 2008
3.5/5
I should know--I grew up in Mokena, IL. Though it has boomed over the past few years, it is still considered a smaller city. It has the essentials--grocery stores, clothing stores, dining, etc. It is about 30 miles SW of Chicago, and you can catch a train d...
