    Speaking from experience, I'm going to disagree with you on Wheaton. As a POC, living there for a short period of time, there was multiple occasions where I didn't feel comfortable. Whether it was me taking my dog for a walk and getting looks or at the store when the baggers would walk away when I was getting checked out. I thought maybe it was just unlucky coincidence but they (Wheaton) recently were in the news for having a politician (who's a holocaust denier) win his election unopposed. I won't be moving back there

    I'm going to be working in the Elmhurst area, what would you say is a good location for someone fresh out of college? Elmhurst downtown seems like a good option, but I'd really like to be closer to the city without too much of a commute. I looked at Oak Park, but it seems like that's a 30-45 minute drive during rush hour, and at that point I might as well find something around West Loop

    • @AustinWeiss
      @AustinWeiss  3 года назад

      Depending where your work is take the Metra and skip the 290 traffic. If you want to be in the city West Loop area is a great option. If you want suburbs consider Oak Brook, Oak Park, Elmhurst and any town along the Metra line to Elmhurst.

    As a former River Forest resident, I can say that it was okay. If you don't mind the racist police that follow black residents walking down Bonnie Brae in the afternoon. I lived there for 2 years and I was followed to the library every single time. Other than that, you just have to worry about the skunks and wolves that randomly show up on your property and the college kids(there are 2 private colleges in River Forest) that may end up drunk walking down your street. River Forest is more family friendly. Let the single and young folks have Oak Park. The bustling downtown and historic district is great for young people who need to get into the city quickly. Metra could be better over there. I have never been on a train coming into downtown that got to me on time.

    Which suburb is most accessible by public transportation? Also are you bears fan?

    • @AustinWeiss
      @AustinWeiss  3 года назад

      Suburbs that have a Metra train stop and Pace buses are very accessible via public transportation. I'm a fan of all Chicago sports teams! Do you use public transportation regularly?

      CTA is an affordable way for traveling about the city and several lines stretch to the collar suburbs. It's way easier than driving and constantly having to hunt for and then pay for parking.

    • @euenfheiejrj
      @euenfheiejrj 2 года назад

      Probably Evanston or Willmette as the CTA goes there.

    These areas are expensive but if your in that tax bracket to afford it than why not but I live in Dekalb/Sycamore area much more affordable

    • @AustinWeiss
      @AustinWeiss  2 года назад +1

      DeKalb/Sycamore are not suburbs of Chicago and really have very little going on in thise areas. I'm very familiar with the area as I went to NIU.

    • @richardpinkerton4724
      @richardpinkerton4724 2 года назад +1

      Actually Dekalb/Sycamore is considered to be apart of the Chicagoland area you can drive to Elburn which is 20 minutes away to get on the metra to get to the city the area is growing and there are major companies coming into the area. Facebook is building a data center here which would provide job opportunities for Niu students also Amazon is coming and they recently built Ferrara candy here so their are definitely opportunities here the cost of living here is way lower than all the towns you mentioned on this list that is what attracted me to this area and I’m from Aurora I work for the city of Dekalb and trust me thereare more opportunities coming plus the median home price is under 200k. Downtown Dekalb has been revitalized and more businesses are moving in to make my point I’m living very comfortable and able to see more of my money compared to living in suburbs closer to Chicago

    • @AustinWeiss

      Keeping more of your money in sacrifice of a lifestyle that is better in the actual suburbs of Chicago - anyone you talk to would not consider DeKalb/Sycamore a Suburb. I spent a decent amount of my twenties in the area and it's not an attractive environment for young professionals. Everyone I know who had lived there has moved out of that area to seek better opportunity elsewhere to start a family. I've taken many calls from people who will be working for those companies you mentioned and they are all considering better school districts, downtown areas and overall lifestyle further East - they'd prefer to commute. I'm sure working for the city provides you a municipal perspective and maybe there are great projects that have potential to improve the area in the future. But only time will tell and I look forward to seeing the changes because I do like to visit the area. When I see the improvements you mentioned I'd be glad to do a video in the future and make more people aware of the community. I appreciate you for your input and can tell you are passionate about the area - as am I because I made lots of great memories there!
