    I live in Hyde park. Sold my car. I walk everywhere. My cleaners is on the same block where I reside. The lakefront is one block from my home. Public transportation/bus stop is located at corner of my building. The drugstore, Grocer and post office are three blocks from my home. I have never experienced theft of my home or car. I’ve never been robbed. I love the city with the exception of the cold weather. The architecture is amazing.

    The video says that a con of living in Lakeview is distance from downtown. I've been here 20 years, and a bus trip downtown is very easy. Time it takes depends on rush hours, but generally you can get downtown in about 30 minutes. Express buses will get you there even faster. There is also the Belmont "L" stop which is a major hub for trains. Shopping in Lakeview is walkable, and we have an excellent hospital here (Illinois Masonic). This neighborhood is probably on the high end of affordable - more expensive than Rogers Park and Buena Park, but cheaper than Lincoln Park, Gold Coast and Streeterville.

    I can't tell if the voice is a robot/artificial intelligence. If not, they're definitely not from Chicago with all the mispronounced words...IE "polish" (as in polish your shoes) instead of Polish (Pole-ishh). And "lattenno" instead of Latino? And its "six-oh-six" not "six hundred and six". Maybe they should have hired a local to read the script!!

    This is one of the better AI voices I've heard in these kinds of videos - which is so important since so many KZread companies don't want to hire a real person to read a script. Still, it is aggravating to listen to robots frequently mispronounce things, put the accent on the wrong syllable, and use that monotonous tone without any natural inflection. It's just a really cheap way to go and does not convey any credibility whatsoever.

    Lived in Lincoln Park for 11 years on lake view Had killer 40th floor lake views. Loved it but about 3 years ago things started to change. Now there are daily petty crimes, muggings. Car jackings, shootings and occasionally street murders. Got to the point we no longer were comfortable walking the dog even in the daytime. Sold it. Took my boat from Diversey harbor and moved to a beach villa in New Buffalo, mi. More laid back but much safer. An hour and 15 but a lifetime away. Scary and sad
