    WGN, our local news here in Chicago, does in fact report by neighborhood. Not sure where this information is coming from but shit is quite literally as bad as the media portrays it if not worse.

    Drive by armed robberies are so frequent now that our police have been instructed to not engage. Car thefts are also skyrocketing. Pops works in security and at least twice a week a dealership gets 10-12 cars stolen, sometimes in broad daylight and once even with police on the scene investigating from the night prior.

    I don’t want to dissuade people from the area as Chicago is a beautiful city, but in the state it’s fallen into I can’t recommend moving unless you know what you’re getting into.
