But with the hot neighborhood condo price tag. My insurance is $100/month and water/sewage/garbage is less than $100/month, so the differences exist on both sides.
The commute from Irving Park is a little faster than Lincoln Square and I have more options (2 Metras/Blue line). It is certainly more "suburban", no disagreement there.
In the end, we looked at Lincoln Square, but the homes that we liked were out of our price range, had bidding wars or sold before they even hit the market. From what we heard many of the homes don't make it to the MLS and you need an "in" to get the best places.
