Hi,

This January we are moving to the Rockford area. We wanted to buy a house.
Somebody here previously wrote:
"Because of Rockford's school lawsuit years ago, kids are bussed all over the city. Homes that are in surrounding areas (Loves Park, Machesney, Caledonia, Roscoe) all have a portion of their homes going to Rockford schools..."

I wanted to purchase a house in Machesney Park or Loves Park, but I don't like that my kids would have to be bussed to Rockford.

Is there a way to know which areas are bussed or should I buy property in Belvidere instead?
Are those bussing areas constant or does it ever change?
Please, help.

Rockford questions sort of live in the general Illinois forum, actually.

"Bussing" is kissing. I don't know where they do that in Rockford.

Manigault, if there is not much in the upper department kissing won't help.
