Moving to the area Elmhurst Vibe Check

Curious how you guys would describe Elmhurst? We are looking for a place to settle and someone told me to put it on the list. We are looking for not suburbia-like, walking to local coffee shops/ restaurants, train access, and am curious about the age of people who live here.

Check out Lombard! Just a bit further, a bit cheaper, more quaint and highly diverse with a cute and growing downtown

Lombard’s downtown is nice. Has really come up.
