[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would look in the city except: I’m really not at all familiar with Chicago so don’t know what blocks to avoid. We need the public schools. Spouse wants a backyard and parking. [/quote] In that case, and with your budget, I would look at Lincoln Square, Roscoe Village, and parts of Lakeview and Lincoln Park. All would have backyard and parking. If you mean large backyard, then yeah, go to the burbs. Chicago safety and schools go by neighborhood. You can research which school triangles will work. There are a lot of good public elementary options (goes k-8) and I understand it’s pretty feasible to get into selective enrollment public high schools, which are excellent. NPN is a similar listserv but for Chicagoland, although a subscription is required. [/quote]
