Everything one might want in a suburb

Residents of North Danada live on the border of over 3,000 acres of preserved forest land. The neat interlocking streets of subdivisions give way to three connected nature preserves managed by DuPage County. With two universities nearby, Metra trains running to and from Chicago every few minutes, and a burgeoning food scene around Naperville, the suburbs of North Danada have seen an uptick in prices and population in recent years.

It's cold!

With a very low crime score of 3 and two hospitals within a 5-mile radius, North Danada is as safe as a suburb gets. The most significant risks around here are the cold temperatures and attendant dangers for drivers and others, especially elderly residents who may not have regular help. Lutheran and Methodist churches are the area's most common houses of worship, and residents will find mosques and synagogues nearby.
