What BestPlaces Users Say about Chicago

The 60630 zip code, located in the city of Chicago, Illinois, has a diverse population and is known for its affordable housing options and access to public transportation. However, like any other place, it has its pros and cons. To get a better idea of what it's like to live in this particular area, let's take a look at some user reviews from the website BestPlaces.net.

1. "I've lived in 60630 for over 10 years now and I absolutely love it. The community is friendly and diverse, and there are plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities. The only downside is the traffic during rush hour, but that's to be expected in a big city." - SarahJ

2. "I moved to 60630 a few years ago and I have to say, it's been a great decision. The cost of living is lower compared to other parts of Chicago, and I feel safe walking around at night. The only downside is the lack of parking options, but that's a small price to pay for the overall quality of life here." - JohnDoe87

3. "I've lived in 60630 my whole life and I have to say it's gone downhill in recent years. The crime rate has increased and there are fewer job opportunities. It's a shame because this used to be a great neighborhood to raise a family in." - JaneSmith

4. "60630 is a hidden gem in Chicago. The housing prices are affordable and there are great schools in the area. Plus, you have easy access to downtown via public transportation. My only complaint is that there aren't many trendy restaurants or shops, but I don't mind taking a short trip to other nearby neighborhoods for that." - Mark123

Overall, the user reviews of living in 60630 are mostly positive, with mentions of friendly communities, affordable housing, and easy access to public transportation. However, there are also some concerns about traffic, parking, and crime rates. It seems like a great place to consider for those looking for a diverse and affordable neighborhood in Chicago.

Please note the following is a comment about only one portion of the 60630 zip code area:

My home neighborhood in Chicago, North Mayfair, should be highly considered by anyone who wants to live in a historic bungalow district. We are one and have a lot of great bungalows on the market right now. While I do not entirely approve of our alderman, she has brought a lot of infrastructure improvements to our neighborhood. A new retail development is going in at Lawrence and Pulaski with that famous bellweather indicator, Starbucks. New steetscaping has taken place on both the main and residential streets throughout the area.
