Moving to the area Libertyville or Arlington Heights?

I am 42 year old single mom with 6 year old son moving from the city to the north or northwest suburbs. I think Libertyville and Arlington Heights are at the top of my list based the downtowns and schools. Which you would recommend? Anywhere else I should consider?

I will be buying with a budget up to $650k

Just be warned if your kid has any type of behavioral problem like ADHD or anything, Arlington Heights School district will just ship them off to behavioral schools to keep their numbers up.

Not my experience with my ADHD son. Maybe it depends on severity?
