"facebook dialogPinterest\n\n__THE CITY: CHICAGO\n\n  THE ESCAPE: NAPERVILLE__\n\n  Naperville, 30 miles west of Chicago, has the character\u2014innovative restaurants, independent shops, fairs and festivals\u2014that the city has started to lose.\n\n__THE CITY: LOS ANGELES\n\n  THE ESCAPE: MONTROSE__\n\n  Set in the foothills of the San Gabriel and Verdugo mountains, Montrose is just 20 minutes by car from downtown L.A. It feels more like a small town than a suburb\u2014albeit one with a nationally recognized wine and cheese shop, Goudas &amp;amp; Vines.\n\n__THE CITY: NEW YORK\n\n  THE ESCAPE: COLD SPRING__\n\n  An hour from Grand Central on the Metro-North railroad, Cold Spring has panoramic views of the Hudson River, good restaurants, downshifting creative types from the city, and proximity to the vibrant art scene of Beacon.\n\n__THE CITY: SAN FRANCISCO\n\n  THE ESCAPE: MILL VALLEY__\n\n  Mill Valley: Across the Golden Gate, 10 minutes north of San Francisco, you'll find a renowned farmer's market, outdoor tai chi classes, redwoods, and canyons\u2014and not a Gap store in sight.\n\n__THE CITY: WASHINGTON, D.C.\n\n  THE ESCAPE: TAKOMA PARK, MARYLAND__\n\n  Takoma Park, Maryland, one of Washington's first suburbs, is more affordable than other neighborhoods and has a great variety of restaurants. It's a little crunchy, but it's hard to argue with the well-regarded schools and impressive music and arts festivals.\n\n__THE CITY: BOSTON\n\n  THE ESCAPE: WALTHAM__\n\n  Twenty minutes west of Boston, Waltham is home to Brandeis University and has the sophistication of a college town without Boston's hordes of overserved undergraduates. The restaurants around Moody Street provide city-quality offerings."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
