So long as they only burn the Southside I'm cool with it. That'll never happen though. Rioting is like work and we all know those types don't like work.

TsarZiedonis posted:I'm going to Chicago next month with my girlfriend and I'm looking for an Airbnb to rent for a few days before her corporate hotel room is open. Ukrainian Village, Bucktown, Logan Square on Milwaukee, Noble Square. Any of those will be cheap and are good neighborhoods that will be pretty cheap to stay in. Not to mention they're all packed with restaurants and bars. Lincoln Park, Gold Coast, Boys Town, and Andersonville are gonna be more expensive but are also safe and have a ton of poo poo to do in the neighborhoods. Basicallly avoid the southside, Humboldt Park (nowhere will say Humnboldt, so just avoid anything between Western and Cicero and North and Chicago). That should keep you in the clear.

Chicago does three things exceptionally well. 1. Food (all kinds...literally every kind) 2. Bars 3. Low income violence

Niwrad posted:Crime has started to seep into the nice neighborhoods now too. This is like right around million dollar homes and $400k condos. This has always been the case. Anywhere within a couple blocks of a red line stop (any red line stop) is going to have poor people mugging people/breaking in. Really the only solution is to just pave over entire southside except China Town and Canaryville and just make it a huge parking lot with bus access to take you downtown.

TsarZiedonis posted:Oh, so as long as I don't go out at night I won't die? Great! Take a look in between Chicago and North Ave and Ashland and Western. Anywhere in there should be nice, with in walking distance of tons of bars, restaurants, and public transport, and have a near zero chance of being mugged even on your own at like 4am.

Huh, thought Austin would be higher. Englewood is right where I thought it would be though.

Hobelhouse posted:Humboldt Park is really two neighborhoods though. There's OK, gentrifying east Humboldt Park, aka "Logan Square South", and west Humboldt Park on the other side of the park, which is Shooty Town. That's where Humboldt Park gets its terrible rep. I have a friend who always used to say he lived in Ukrainian Village despite living right down the street from to the giant Puerto Rican flag arch.... Both sides were bad just a decade ago. In another 10 years Humboldt will be what Logan Square is today. Which is why I'm thinking of buying there.
