"No such place in Algonquin"

See Kenilworth Ave, Algonquin, IL. Only one 'n' in the street's name. The Post Office put 2 "n's" in it so it is only in their database, nowhere else.

"Great for kids, but horrible for peace and quiet."

Being 1 block east of a major highway thats used by many, many trucks, the noise level leaves a lot to be desired. There used to be many wooded, empty lots, but now they're filled with homes. And, because it is in an unincorporated area, and the roads are dirt, the newbies have decided its the perfect place for their children to drive ATVs, dirt bikes, go-carts, snowmobiles, and anything with a loud motor. You can't even hear the birds half the time anymore.
Not the place to live if you like quiet.

onenplez I need to clarify the Street Wired category. Whereas you can get DSL, you can't get the fastest speeds because its too far from the main transmitter.
