ADB2009 December 18, 2012
Hello,
Please tell me any information you have and/or advice about the best (or at least top 3) schools (k-8) and also areas to live in Arlington Heights IL. After living in Chicago IL my whole life I am now 33 years old and have two kids (boys) I am considering a move to Arlington Heights IL. Thanks (in advance)

Hi ADB2009,
You can find all sorts of information on the schools here: http://www.greatschools.org/find-schools/
From school rankings to parent reviews to demographic information on the schools, it's all in the School Finder.
You might want to talk to a real estate professional in the area, too, unless you are familiar with the area. They don't just handled sales--they can help you choose the area with the amenities that make sense for your situation--parks, shopping, close to work.
If you have a job lined up already, you can talk to the HR department there. They can pair you up with coworkers with ages of children similar to yours. You can find out about commute times and things that you'll want to take into consideration.
Good luck and let us know how it goes.81848

I live in the neighboring town of elk grove, and love it. Absolutely great place for families. My kids attend one of the school of choice in district 59 - Ridge Family learning Center. This school you choose over your neighborhood school and the kids come from all the towns in the district including Arlington Heights. It would well worth your time to check it out. Hope this is helpful.81852
