    "Great neighborhood. Gang areas surround us but little violent crime. Mostly tagging. Parking is an issue because many parts of streets in the area are restricted and what’s not restricted is used by North Park Uni students."

    "Nothing during the pandemic. A lot of restaurants and mom/pop shops. Block parties prior to 2020. Always see neighbors talking on the street and dogs being walked. Feel safe when going to and from apartment/car. Building up the neighborhood with new developments and shops. Overall, a centered, fun, easy access part of Chicago. "

    "Love this neighborhood and I intend on staying here! My grandparents have owned a building here for over 20 years (I’m 26 years old now) and I’ve always felt safe as a kid. It’s a well kept, friendly, and quiet area. I live on Kolmar and there’s a new strip of stores coming in such as Five Below, Ross, Target, and an LA Fitness gym, so I’m absolutely thrilled the neighborhood is becoming even more walkable!! "
