Winnetka, Wilmette, Kenilworth??
Hi all,
How do these suburbs compare? Elementary school quality, property taxes, current estate climate, "issues", (whatever those might be  ,.... Basically, I am interested in the inside scoop... |

Uups...I meant to say current real estate climate. I am also interested in whether side walks get cleaned in the winter, so I can still walk to public transportation.
Thanks!

Why Kenilworth?
I could not find out much about the Sears School - their website is terribly uninformative.
