My husband has just accepted a temporary position with his company, working in the Hinsdale area.

Can anyone tell me about good preschools in that area or within a 10-mile radius? I'm currently thinking about enrolling my oldest in Kensington School of the Highlands (in LaGrange). Does anyone have any opinions on this school?

Finally, what are the pros & cons of living in the Hinsdale/Westmont/Willowbrook areas? My husband's company will cover our moving & rental costs. I'm looking for insight in terms of crime, congestion, etc.

Thank you for any help you can provide!

Hinsdale is beautiful - but it's extrememly expensive. Taxes are normally in the 15-18k range on most homes. Very nice downtown as well. My wife and I frequent it quite often.

There isn't much by way of rentals. I would be cautious of the few rentals there are - haven't read many good things about them.

The last time I was there (few weeks ago), I noticed a few homes for rent. You might want to go that route as opposed to an apartment complex.

Good luck!

Thanks.
