Getting better!

The construction of new housing had slowed down the last couple of years; however, we are slowly seeing an increase in that department. We, definitely, are in need of some high-rise commercial real estate buildings in the area, housing some of the more high-end businesses. Most of the residents possess undergraduate and graduate degrees, with the average house costing between $200,000 and $300,000. Some New Lenox residents are living in homes of the 1 million and 2 million dollar range. With the amount of taxes that are poured into the New Lenox economy, I believe that we should house more high-end businesses and also house more diverse and formal dining establishments. Creating more high-end business in the area would create a classier area that would strengthen the local economy. The ability for New Lenox residents to work closer to home would allow the local families to spend more time with each other, reducing the amount of crime in the area due to "turn-key" children and teen-agers. However, the park districts are great, and getting better!
