Hey folks, I'm a teacher here and Average temperature is around 48--F, so expect cold winters. Household incomes average around $56,815 in North Chicago. Homes are going for about $147,800 on average. Rent is about $1,392/month for a decent place. Property taxes are high but you get good services. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. What are your go-to spots? Cheers. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The weather takes some getting used to. Property taxes are high but you get good services. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Night life is decent if you know the right spots.
