The extremly wealthy north suburbs of Chicago. Well know for its great schools and wealthiness. Some of the greatly recognized schools are New Trier, Glenbrook South, Glenbrook North, and many other schools. The North Shore includes
Kenilworth, Winnetka, Wilmette, Glenview, Glencoe, Highland Park, Lake Forest, Northbrook, Deerfield, and Evanston. Basically, the average costs of these houses are well over 1 million dollars, and some of these propertys are even on the lake. Many kids have all designer clothes and for their sixteenth brithdays get cars such as BMWs, Lexus', Audis, and i have even heard of some getting Lamborghinis. Some 16 year olds even get yachts for their birthdays. This area is full of many bitches that you really don't want to be around, but it also has some nice people.

New York has The Hamptons. Los Angeles has Beverly Hills. We here in Chicago have the North Shore.
The North Shore is a group of suburbs north of Chicago that the majority of line up against Lake Michigan, thus the name "North Shore".
I'm from Chicago, and I will truthfully say that no, not all of the "North Shore" is snobby rich kids. (Like Evanston for instance, is a pretty decent and diverse suburb). However, don't give us the "you're just jealous because you wish you were as rich as us" attitude. Because honestly, it is way cheaper to live in the suburbs than it is to live in the city. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that everyone in Chicago can move to the north shore and buy a mansion. What I'm saying is that if all the rich families in the north shore were to move into the rich neighborhoods of Chicago, they wouldn't even nearly be able to aford the same quality houses they once had.
We don't need you to tell us you're rich. We've seen rich. Chicago has families with more wealth beyond your beliefs, so that's not an issue with us. It's the stuck up attitude that pisses off a lot of Chicago residents. Believe me, We have areas like Hyde Park, Lincoln Park, and The Loop. All of which have families with 10 times more cash than your families, so your wealth is nothing of suprise to us.
In Chicago we don't care if you've got a great car, a huge house, or a nice school. Our lives are still more exciting than yours.

A popular band from the North Shore is Fall Out Boy (Even though most out-of-staters have the crazy idea they're from Chicago.)
A popular movie that depicts some of the snootiness in comparison to the normality of the North Shore is Mean Girls

The North Shore of Chicago consists of many wealthy towns such as Glencoe, Wilmette, Northbrook, Highland Park, Kenilworth, Glenview, Evanston, Deerfield. Here, mothers drive their Honda Odyssey's or Toyota Sienna's while the fathers drive around expensive BMW's, Mercedes, Lexus's, etc. This part of Chicago is known for its wealth and unique culture. Families spend thousands of dollars a year for their child to be physically active. Typically, teens are carrying their JUULS and other vaping devices around. Teen girls are always on top of the latest fashion trend and as if the $650+ iPhone isn't enough, you have to have the $100 Apple charging case that chips within the first week so you can show off that phone in Snapchats or on Instagram! Additionally, education is a priority and everyone at some point or another can be found crying in their room over a math test! Not all people are rich and rude by the way. Although we hella judge one another, we are all a community! Also, homecoming and turnabout are an excuse to party so hard and waste money on party buses and limos even though they're super fun trust me. To add on, going down to the city is a popular activity. However, we don't take public transportation because...ew. Instead, we carpool with friends that have the nicest BMW out of all of us! Love living here, no complaints!

The North Shore is an awesome group of northern suburbs of Chicago. It's funny because all towns sort of rival each other. At New Trier Highschool, one of the top high schools in the nation, its like "oh, they're from glencoe? thats why he has a jew fro." stuff like that. Everyone here drives bmws, lexus', audis, range rovers, etc. If you dont' drive one of those, your basically poor. The girls basically are bitches. Yeah, theres some nice people but not many. All the girls act super fake especially on facebook or text and then they are super bitchy in person. How could i complain though? this place rocks. And yeah we have it a lot better than everyone else. The only people who we compare ourselves to and wish we had the stuff of are celebrities.
Winnetka kid "They are from wilmette?"
Highland Park kid "Yeah, they have never even been inside of EStreet!"
Winnetka kid "I feel so bad for them."
Both "hahaha"
*note nobody talks to your face here in the North Shore
