Hello fellow chicago suburbs folks!!

I am moving to Palatine and am curious about the safety around this address: 807 N Quentin Rd, Palatine, IL 60067.

For context, this is Daisy’s ice cream on West Northwest Highway. I will be buying or renting a house on this street so very curious about the area. It is near Baldwin which I have heard mixed reviews on but only a few minutes from downtown palatine. I am young and have a young family so their safety is very important to me.

Thanks

Grew up in that area, parents still live there. Went to Plum Grove and Fremd. Completely safe.

Not as good as schools in Buffalo Grove, Lincolnshire or Vernon Hills.

If someone could please help clarify - how do I add other people on the onset on buying a property? This is a new build, buying directly from the builder.
