A suburb of Chicagoland divided into the
North and South sides. The North side is home to the Main Street area and many historical landmarks, whereas the South side is dominated by large stores like Target, and has the High School with the better
football team.
This area is predominantly home to families who are quite wealthy, especially towards the top of the hill on the South Side, and the entire North Side. There are hardly any apartment buildings, and all of the old, ranch-style homes are being torn down to make room for monstrous three-level mansions.
By far, the hottest properties in Downers Grove are on Fairmount Avenue, a tranquil offshoot of the very busy 55th Street.
The two High Schools, Downers Grove North and
Downers Grove South are bitter rivals. The South mascot is the Mustang, and the North is the Trojan.
Hopefully, all of the rich people in this area and other wealthy areas such as Naperville and Glen Ellyn will be abducted by aliens by the year 2006.
