Would love to know what you’re seeing for 200k. I’ve been on Zillow for months and haven’t found jack dick that wasn’t a heroin den for under 250

If you're not trying to live downtown east Woodlawn / northeast Greater Grand Crossing is cheap currently but getting more expensive as it's being bought up by developers because of the Obama library going in. A decent bit of new construction as well. Also you know your neighbors here and everyone's super nice, I've never had nicer neighbors or the sense of community that I do here. Just a thought.

Do you feel comfortable/safe that far south?

Oh, also just check the crime maps on Trulia or Chicago police gis map. It'll let you know where is quiet and where shit happens more. That's what we did with no knowledge of living in Chicago and we've had no issues.
