"Upscale Community West of Chicago" Hinsdale by riorich55

Incorporated in 1873 the Village of Hinsdale, Illinois has long been home to Hinsdale Hospital, my wife's long time employer and the birthplace of 3 of my 4 children.

Hinsdale is a very up scale community with easy highway and train access to downtown Chicago. I once worked with a gentleman who spent almost a year traveling the country with his wife to find a place to live and they selected Hinsdale as their home town.

There is not much in the way of tourism in Hinsdale. It does have a nice downtown section right next to the train tracks. You can walk around the community and see many tree lined streets.

Many Chicago area business executives live in this community. During the morning commuter rush hour you will see a number of people walking from their homes nearby to catch a train into downtown Chicago.
