[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Budget is up to $1 million. Live in WL district in Arlington and like it. I have heard not so great things about the north shore area, particularly those feeding into New Trier- the whole conspicuous consumption, rich kid affluenza thing. And a total pressure cooker environment. [b]True or not? [/b] We like neighborhoods with sidewalks, trees, prefer older homes although new homes are fine but very much against tract homes, cul-de-sac-y type subdivisions.[/quote] Friend is raising her sons in a North Shore village and she is incredulous at the intensity of competition among kids and the pressure coming from parents. (FWIW she and her husband are totally conventional preppy types, typical of the area, so I find it notable that it concerns her.)[/quote]
