Greetings !!

I recently got a job in Chicago, our office has location both in heart of downtown and in Lisle IL. My husbands work is also at Lisle, but I might have to work few days from downtown and few days from Lisle, so I was wondering where would be the best place to stay. Looking for a good neighborhood and close to Metra where I can take train to downtown or drive with my husband to Lisle. I appreciate any piece of information. I am new to Chicago so have no clue about the traffic on I-88 to Lisle.

Thanks
Ganti

Well, Lisle has its own Metra station. There are lots of options to choose from. To narrow them down, you need to answer a few question.

1. How urban an environment do you want?
2. How much can you afford to pay for housing?
3. How long a commute (driving or train) are you/he willing to tolerate?

Clarendon Hills, Westmont, Downers Grove. All nice areas. Depending on the type of apt living you're looking for, check out the Avalon Walk apts in Willowbrook. It's actually Clarendon Hills. At 55th St and Holmes Rd. Btw 55th and 63rd off Rt 83. However, there are apts all around the "main st" downtown areas of Clarendon Hills, Downers Grove and Westmont.
