House Hunt: Five Homes for Sale with 3000's Addresses

Fun facts about Western Springs geography: its northernmost point at the intersection of Lawn Avenue registers a latitude of about 41.821 N; its southernmost point, at Plainfield Road and I-294, is about 41.775 N, a difference of .046 degrees, or about 3.15 miles. So that's how tall your Village is, if balanced on its Nevada-mirror-image tip!

Another fun fact: 40th Street runs through town at 41.8172 N, the dividing line between house numbers starting with 3 and those of the 4 and 5 variety. (Those north of 39th Street are even in a different township: Proviso.) We picked out five of those 3000's homes for spotlight this week.
