Elmhurst is a great place for families, with the new schools, afterschool programs, great library, easy commuting and available parking!
This passage from "However, besides the fact theres much diverse beauty in this area...besides this little ghetto is a b- area to raise your kids in." is racist as hell - coupling specific races and ethnicities with crimes - and, having personally spent a good amount of time in the area, in my opinion the image it paints is inaccurate. Perhaps there's some information in it that is useful and can be salvaged but I'm not sure what that is and in any case, it definitely needs to be rewritten.
Elmhurst is NOT the replacement name of the Town of Newtown. It is the replacement name of the Village of Newtown, which was originally named Middleburgh. Newtown Township is still extant as the 111XX Zip Code, although the various place names are used for the full five digits. SSG Cornelius Seon (Retired) 14:41, 29 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
