So, I grew up here but left for a while. It's a a small town city with about 6,792 people. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.

I've lived in Oak Park for about 13 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
it's not perfect but it works for me. When I first moved here from Dallas, I was surprised by nightlife. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Friendly community, easy to meet people
- Good healthcare facilities
- The nightlife scene is tough
The downsides:
- Nightlife is limited
- Limited entertainment options
Overall I'd rate it 9/10 for families. No regrets on my end..
