    "This neighborhood is the epicenter of everything…grocery stores, public transportation, and small businesses on Broadway, Irving Park, and Montrose. Its a neighborhood for mix ages but not for kids. There are kids but if you’re looking for kid friendly areas its better to move to the suburbs."
