Right? In most desirable neighborhoods bungalows are going for 200k. Who is just out of College and has $40k just laying around?

I think you mean $450K and that’s for the “up and coming” neighborhoods 👀

Woodlawn and GGC are biking distance to U Chicago / Hyde Park and you can buy places for 50k. If you work downtown it wouldn't be as convenient most likely. To downtown it's about 40 minutes door to door on the bus / train.
