What neighborhood do you live in? I live in Uptown with my wife. We don’t have any kids yet but I don’t think I would want my kids to go to school around here. Uptown is sketchy and people seem to get murdered here on a regular basis. I would feel differently if we lived in Lake View, Lincoln Park, or Wicker Park, but those neighborhoods are too expensive for us.

I live in the painfully uncool neighborhood of Jefferson Park. There are a decent chunk of good K-8 CPS neighborhood schools up here. A very safe neighborhood, in part due to the number of CPD who live in the area.

Uptown is amazing and while it is still rough around the edges it is easily one my favorite neighborhoods in the city. The crime is slowly getting better, but I think most parents of means send their kids to private school or lottery them somewhere else.... or move.
