Been meaning to ask this. My partner and I are The median home value here is around $583,100, which is pretty steep. Poverty rate is 8.2%, which is pretty low. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. Honestly, I think it's a great place if you know where to look. The food scene here is surprisingly good.

As someone who grew up here, it's not perfect but it works for me. A lot has changed in the past few years though. community vibe used to be much established but now it's tough.

Renting here right now, paying about /mo for a 4-bedroom. I have mixed feelings honestly. Compared to Pittsburgh it's solid.

We moved here with our family and I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now. Schools in Oak Park area are improving. Kids love it here.
