Our Take
Harrington offers decent home values and solid schools, but it’s a car‑dependent, quiet suburb with limited amenities and higher commute times. If you value a safe, family‑friendly place and can accept low walkability, it could work, but if you need a vibrant or transit‑connected neighborhood, you’ll want to look elsewhere.
