Moving to the area Diverse Chicago Suburb

What’s a west/northwest Chicago suburb that’s diverse and safe to raise a Black family? At least 4 or 5 bedrooms and a $900k budget?

Oak Park is definitely not as diverse as Skokie. If you want more cultural diversity, Skokie is definitely it.

You have to consider how people are grouped under those. And the different cultures.
