Best and worst neighborhoods in Fruitville

Household incomes average around $86,500 in Fruitville. It's a a small town city with about 15,828 people. The city has invested a lot in new development. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. The weather takes some getting used to. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.

Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Close to nature
- Plenty of shopping options
- Active local events

Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Lack of diversity
- Not enough green space

Came here for weather and stayed because I genuinely enjoy living here. The safety is honestly solid and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Used to live on the Oak Park side, now on the Old Town side. Completely different vibe. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now.
