NW burbs. They have schools and nice neighborhoods. You should look at Schaumburg, Arlington Heights, and Elk Grove. Boarder towns like Niles, Park Ridge, Skokie, and Evanston are nice.
I live on the far NW side, in Edison Park. Edison Park/Norwood Park are both very nice family oriented areas, on Metra and CTA blue line. Park Ridge is nice if you can afford it, as well as Niles.
Pretty much any suburb has Metra though, its nice around here like that.
if you want an easy commute downtown, live downtown. you can’t have both.
The easiest commute is by train to avoid traffic, so check out Western Springs, LaGrange, Oak Park, Des Plaines. But pretty much all burbs have trains downtown.
If you’re talking about suburbs, I would say a lot of the suburbs such as Aurora, which is a little farther from downtown but still very nice in my opinion; and Schaumburg, Bloomingdale, Naperville, and Oak Brook.
If you’re driving downtown, it’s the closest from the north suburbs; north shore is expensive but school’s are good, access to public transportation is easy, too.
Northwest suburbs are more reasonably priced (Arlington Heights, Mt. Prospect) but have good schools, and easy access to the commuter trains.
