Lots of positive news is displayed in the Patch and elsewhere, and I still think we in LF/LB live in a fabulous bubble. :)
The Chicago suburb is one of the richest counties in the U.S., as measured by per capita income. But home prices are down 29% over the past 5 years. Other drawbacks: long commutes and lousy weather. The quality of life here hasn't been harmed by a drop in real estate prices. If you don't like long commutes (presumably to downtown Chicago), shut up and move! We have cold, snowy winters - oh, boo hoo! Lake County covers a very broad set of communities and demographics! That article was completely lame! Lake Bluff/Lake Forest is still a great place to live. P.S. Lake Bluff was listed last year as one of the top 10 coastal communities in the U.S.!
