Strong backup. Becomes #1 if we prioritize square footage, new construction, and the Red Line over walkable lifestyle.

Pros: Best more-house-per-dollar option while staying close-in; Red Line MetroRail station; New-build quality at $1.5M.
Cons: Lamar MS staff-turnover concern; Elementary not quite Barton Hills/Casis tier; Less walkable than Hyde Park.
