Well this thread has turned into a **** show!

OP, I think you would probably be happy in either Evanston or Oak Park. I'm partial to lake access, which tips in Evanston's favor, but I think Oak Park also has a lot going for it as well.

Neither of these places are perfect--there are still some issues with achievement gaps in the schools. There is still snotty rich people behavior (and there are a lot of rich people in Evanston). But they are overall diverse suburbs with well performing schools with an urban-ish feel.

So OP I'm interested to know where you ended up? My husband and I without going into details will likely end up in a similar situation with similar preferences...
