When residents aren’t in the skies, ample shopping options and scenic nature preserves ensure a turbulence-free lifestyle close to home. “Naperville’s a posh town, but it’s also a community that really comes together for its people,” says Eva Burns, a broker with RE/MAX of Naperville. Burns specializes in the local real estate market and has sold homes in town for over 20 years.
