Hey, My partner and I are Crime rate is something to consider -Burr Ridge sits at 64.7 per 100K. You can expect to pay around $3,000 for rent here. With a population of 11,119, Burr Ridge is a small town. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The weather takes some getting used to. Worth the trade-offs? Thanks! The suburbs are where most families end up. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. It's not perfect, but the community is solid.
