@@AustinWeiss Probably the time era, it was kind of a Norman Rockwell type town. Loved our house, our woods, on an acre and a third. The neighbors, life was good then. And just the feeling you had just living there. Learning how to ice skate. They had a really big pool with a high dive. So glad I started out my life there. I live in WA. State now. I want to come back sometime. I know my old house is gone, but I Google map it now and then, and it still seems special.
Love all the downers grove highlights. It’s such a cute suburb! Side note: love watching your videos continuously improve throughout the years. This drone footage is AWESOME!
@@AustinWeiss the place where they have the wooden street signs and the wooded area. And the airport area. I pretty much like all of downers Grove. Better than Elmhurst.
The DG farmers market is great and I personally love the fresh breakfast sandwich vendor. The parks/facilities are beautiful throughout Downers Grove and I enjoyed exploring most of them while putting together my DG vlog. What's your favorite restaurant?
Really depends on your needs, lifestyle and price point. The downtown area has great amenities and is more desirable but more expensive. Further South you can find great homes but you are further from the action, train station and nightlife.
@@AustinWeiss In the 80's it went from a working middle class town to a overpriced Yuppy utopia....I remember a huge Rexnord ball bearing factory right up where I88 and the park is now....Downtown was almost completely different. I lived just north of 59th street. Living in Nevada now. No income tax, low property tax, way less regulation, and the sun is shining 90% of the time. Not to mention they can balance the state budget.

*What's your favorite thing about Downers Grove?!*
Used to live on Lee Ave. in the 1950's. And my Dad took the train to downtown Chicago.
I have great memories as a child there. Loved living there.

I start dental school at Midwestern next month! I can't wait to move to Downers Grove, thanks for the video
Awesome! I have a friend who just graduated from dental school at Midwestern

I live in Downers Grove. DGN class of ‘18
Sweet! What was your experience like at DG North High School?
Some parts of Downers Grove are exceptional. It’s better than Elmhurst. It’s a beautiful town.
What's your favorite area of Downers Grove?
@@AustinWeiss the place where they have the wooden street signs and the wooded area. And the airport area. I pretty much like all of downers Grove. Better than Elmhurst.
I usually like going to all the restaurants and traditions there like farmers markets and I love walking and riding around trails here in downers
The DG farmers market is great and I personally love the fresh breakfast sandwich vendor. The parks/facilities are beautiful throughout Downers Grove and I enjoyed exploring most of them while putting together my DG vlog. What's your favorite restaurant?
My hometown
I’m moving to Chicago to finish my nursing degree with Loyola and can’t decide between the downers grove campus and maywood/forest park/oak grove 😬😬
Good options! Did you mean Oak Park? Do prefer more urban or suburban style living?
I live in Downers grove
Awesome - what's your favorite thing about living in Downers Grove?
Might want to correct your pronunciation of the Tivoli theater.
Thanks for the video dissection, was planning on working on my pronunciations for the next video. Happy holidays! 😊
I live in Downers Grove!
Cool! What's are a few of your favorite things about living in DG?
@@AustinWeiss I don’t do Favorites!
Any recommendations for apartments in Downer’s Grove?
What part of town are you looking to be in?
Great video. Are there any areas in Downers Grove that you would avoid buying a house?
Really depends on your needs, lifestyle and price point. The downtown area has great amenities and is more desirable but more expensive. Further South you can find great homes but you are further from the action, train station and nightlife.
The southern part tends to have a higher crime rate and not too good schools
@@Brookfieldilrailfan Really? It's Downers Grove. Not Chicago. What crimes are committed?
I grew up there.....I left in 1989 and never looked back....
Cool, what was it like to grow up in DG?

Can you hear that?......it is the sound of the real estate prices crashing..................
Top economist says otherwise - www-cnbc-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2023/09/20/us-home-prices-to-rise-in-2024-there-are-simply-not-enough-homes.html
I doubt it… Downers Grove is special. Real estate prices will stay consistent.
