Hinsdale Ranked Among 'Most Fashionable Towns in America'

A study by Bundle concluded that more than 11 percent of Hinsdale residents have made at least four high-end clothing purchases over the last 30 months.

Hinsdale is the 11th most fashionable town in the U.S. according to a study by Bundle, a business and consumer rating website. (See the full Bundle ratings here.)

The Bundle study, which was first done with major American cities like Chicago and New York, pitted small towns across the country against one another based on the number of households who made "at least four transactions at top-end designer merchants over the past 30 months."

According to the study, 11.29 percent of Hinsdale households fell into that "fashion-conscious" category. Newport Coast, Calif., topped the rankings with 16.15 percent.
