I hate to say it, but people either love it or hate it. I know that's kinda vague, but the developer's of University Village, residential, retail and commercial basically built an entire "Village" out of just about nothing at all. It's not like Lakeview where everything has grown over many decades, but instead, it basically just popped up over a few years. It's great because everything is at your fingertips. You are close to public transportation, 5-10 minutes to downtown and the Loop, close to I-94, UIC, 290, restaurants, shops, Home Depot, Jewel, Whole Foods, dog parks, etc. etc. The list just keeps on going. For that reason, I think it's great! It's important to find a home here though that is unique and not "cookie-cutter" because since everything was built pretty quickly, there is a lot of similar product. You want to make sure that when you go to sell your home, you aren't competing with 25 other homes that look exactly like yours!

If you have any other questions at all, don't hesitate to contact me. I'd be happy to help.
