Hinsdale is CPA money. North Shore is CEO money.

That is perfectly said.

Both wealthy, but North Shore is big time old money. Hinsdale has been nice for awhile, but the north shore has been known for its wealth for longer. Both will have good schools as well.

Naperville and Barrington would also be similar to those areas in terms of wealth and schools.

Hinsdale sucks. North shore is way cooler

I highly recommend the north shore. While, I liked living in Barrington, I like being closer to the city in Winnetka.

Naperville and Barrington are not possible for me. Need to be closer.

Moved to northshore last year and absolutely love it! Easy commute with metra and so much is walking distance. In the summer, rly enjoyed being able to walk to the beaches.

Is anyone else trying to buy a condo or townhouse? I’m targeting a 2BR in LP/Old Town and am struggling...everything decent is snatched up super quick; haven’t fallen in love with anything I’ve seen. If anyone is having luck can you shoot over some recommendations or maybe a good realtor? Also need to be out of my apartment by 6/31 so time is running out. Should I just hold off buying or try to stick it out?

Long story short - Illinois IRS made me submit W2s for tax correction due to working out of state.

NOW they assessed a penalty and was told the call center can’t fix this after. I called in July to get this done before deadlines. What can I do.

Has anyone else gone back to relying more on public transportation with the surging Uber / Lyft prices.

I haven’t taken buses and trains much since I’ve graduated but now it just feels like I’m throwing money out the window by not making the switch back.
