Grocery stores in Englewood -recommendations?

Curious what people think. The unemployment rate is 4.5%, which is about average. You can expect to pay around $1,925 for rent here. Poverty rate is 7.6%, which is pretty low. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The food scene here is surprisingly good. Is this normal for Englewood? I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The city has invested a lot in new development. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years.

OK so I've been meaning to write this for a while. I moved here 15 years ago from Pittsburgh and here's my honest breakdown:

Housing: The market is competitive but not impossible. We're paying /mo for a 1-bed in East. It's surprisingly good for what you get.

Jobs: The market is competitive right now, especially in marketing. If you're in manufacturing you might struggle.

People: Generally hit or miss. It took about 16 months to build a solid friend group.

Food: challenging. Tons of options if you like Asian.

Would recommend to anyone considering it..
