Communities- The North Shore and Surrounding Areas The North Shore is a collection of some of the most sought after communities in the country, running north from Chicago along the shores of Lake Michigan toward the Wisconsin border. They feature charming downtowns, outstanding schools, magnificent and diverse architecture, easy commutes to the city by rail or roadway, towering trees and fabulous cultural and recreational opportunities. Did I mention great shopping and restaurants? Each of the communities has its own unique personality. I have lived in the Chicago area my whole life and would love to show you the North Shore and the surrounding areas. If you would like to see properties for sale or have questions you can reach me at 847-922-4815 or by email. Where do I find out about all the different communities? You can find out general information such as village
websites, utility and school district information for just
about every community in the Chicago area in the link
below. Quick Reference Pages to Chicago's North Shore
Communities Getting around the area? Getting around is not a problem. The North Shore is close to everything and convenient to trains, buses, OHare airport and good roads. METRA Train Service- Commuter railroad
service throughout the Chicagoland area. Schedules, routes
and stations. Where do I find more information? This section has links to the websites of the counties
I cover. They contain a wealth of information and more
helpful links. I also have links to the state of Illinois and
the Department of Natural Resources which governs Illinois
State Parks. Finally there is a link to help you determine
whether a community charges a tax on the sale of real estate,
and if so who pays it and whether a
community requires inspections. (The state of Illinois and
local counties tax the sale of real estate but not every
community has a tax.) |
