#5 Chicago south side was at one time a delightful cosmopolitian collection of ghettos. These were bedroom communities for the lakeshore steelworkers and industrial product manufacturing. Not uncommon on a Saturday night to walk to Greektown for a pig roast with ouzo or Little Italy for grape leaf sausage with sambuco and grappa, then smoking and street dancing with Black and Puerto Rican girls and rum, catch a late showing of Bruce Lee in a Chinatown theatre complete with ideogram subtitles and finishing in a dark quiet Irish neighborhood bar with Harp, cider or Jameson. I had a little more stamina back then and the world was friendlier. |

#3 Englewood is NOT a tourist destination. Don't even drive through there A couple relatives used to live in the area. They moved out in the early '80s after they were robbed a couple of times. The closest I ever get to it anymore is when I fly out of Midway (~4 miles away) or take the grandkids to the Museum of Science & Industry/ Columbia Exposition/Univ. of Chicago/Robie House areas (~ 1-2 miles away). The latter areas still feel too close on some days. |

#2 Here is the Homicide Map from heyjackass.com. Geographically, Englewood is the dark gray one about in the middle. When it comes to Killed + Wounded however, Englewood leads with 251 total compared to 217 in 2nd place. A busy place, apparently. |
