Extremely gorgeous and very developed neighborhood. Reminds me of Beverly hills to be exact. Lots of boutique shopping and lots and lots of fun activities. Lovely parks and lake as well as a stunning golf club.

Highland Park is a very friendly neighborhood, but it's also known as a bubble of its own. It's a very niche community that celebrates fun events, but it does have a reputation of a rich neighborhood, and diversity is welcomed, just rare. Everything's within walking distance, well-maintained streets, good safety, and its an overall gorgeous city.

As a high school student in Highland Park, I would like to inform you that the environment is challenging, both academically and socially, as with most high schools this is generally the case. But with this school, it is even more so.
