Clarendon Hills is a small community in Chicago’s western suburbs, adjacent to its better-known neighbor, Hinsdale.
In the first part of our introduction to Clarendon Hills we met Mike McCurry, heard a bit of the village’s history, and learned why people choose to live in Clarendon Hills in lieu of Hinsdale or the North Shore suburbs. Mike is an agent with Coldwell Banker and a 20-year resident of Clarendon Hills.
In the second, third and fourth segments we drove around Clarendon Hills, starting with the compact downtown and its locally-owned shops. We talked about real estate market conditions, including short sales and foreclosures, got a fix on the range of housing prices in the village, and chatted about homes, schools, parks and more.
In this segment Mike talks about village government and services.
In two additional videos, we pause for a look at a home in Hinsdale that Mike considers a “screaming deal” at a price of $1,830,000. And, since Mike played pro ball with the Minnesota Vikings in the 80s, we’ll touch on the subject of Hinsdale Central’s football team and look at Mike’s office “shrine” of football memorabilia.
