    "Due to construction, our neighborhood can be difficult to enter and exit at certain times of the day. Exits to our neighborhood have also been closed periodically. Many streets here are brick and uneven so you have to drive slow and cautiously. "

    "This neighborhood is in between the ritzy German Village and low rent Southern Orchards. Its’ inhabitants are friendly. Foot traffic to and from Schiller Park includes residents from all surrounding neighborhoods. Our house was broken into once in the 3 years we lived here. Nice enough area but still city living. "
