Wilmette
Lakefront North Shore village with Gillson Park beach, the Baha'i House of Worship, New Trier schools and both Metra and CTA service.
Wilmette is a lakefront North Shore village just north of Evanston, home to Gillson Park's beach and harbor and the landmark Baha'i House of Worship. A walkable village center and two rail lines make it a top choice for families leaving the city.

Most of the village is served by Wilmette Public Schools District 39 for elementary and middle school (some areas fall in other districts) and New Trier Township High School District 203. Confirm the boundary for each address.
