upper middle class suburb north of chicago. not as rich as lake forest to the east, but richer than pretty much the rest of lake county. kids from libertyville like to consider their town part of the north shore, except their missing the most important part of being considered north shore-which is of course the lake. the highschool is pretty highly ranked, and kids are smartish. an obscene amount of fakebaking, jeepdriving, pot smoking,northfacing and school spirit can be observed among the students at libertyville highschool. takes forever to get into the city driving but takes like 40 minutes on the train. has a "historic" uptown area where kids that cant drive walk around. the mcdonalds is incredibly inconveniently located. dats pretty much it
Where are you from?
The Northshore
Really? because Im pretty sure Libertyville does not touch the lake.

An ever growing stuck up suburban town with its inhabitants seeking to further enlarge their egos by boasting about their worthless incomes and snotty upper-class nieghbohoods. Their football team won state; but some, actually, many people wonder if they would have been as successful without the prevalent use of steroids. Home to the most notorious slut in the area, the high school has become a breeding ground for skanks and upper-class tools.

Typical Northwest Chicago Suburb. Wealthy enough to look down on other suburbs (especially Mundelein), while still believing they are "down to earth" because they are not as rich as Lake Forest. Residents will often remind you that Libertyville is better than your town, often followed up with "we don't do THAT in Libertyville, we do it THIS way." The guys are the cookie cutter Dave Matthews band followers. They wear expensive sandals, sporting a $50 haircut made to look "shaggy", smoking lots of pot, and claiming to be hippies while being die-hard republicans without really knowing why or following politics. The girls are devastatingly sheltered, but think they understand racism because "there was a black kid that went to my high school". They can be heard saying, "we like totally have minorities too just like anywhere else. Like my doctor is totally Indian and my psychiatrist is Chinese or something."

Village full of car dealers, has one of the still thriving downtown areas, LOTS of visable pride/support/etc for the HS team The Libertyville Wildcats, lots of rich and upper middle class people, pretty much the definition of southern Lake County. Libertyville is bordered by Mundelein and Vernon Hills which are similar villages/towns/etc.

A Chicago suburb, comparable to the classic north shore suburbs, just not directly on the lake. Characterized by new money and an amazing high school football team, Libertyville provides for an excellent, although typical, upper-middle class lifestyle. When in the town, one will notice a cute yet quaint historical downtown area, as well as an abundance of car dealerships. Affectionately called L-ville by those who live there.
