Yes. The near west side is nasty too. But the far west side and the
north side are pretty darn nice places to live. When she started high
school her parents moved to a near west suburb called Berwyn because
there was so much race shit going on and the Catholic school was so
expensive. We visited her grandmother a few weeks ago in the old
hood. She doesn't go outside alone ever cuz she's old. I'm 6'3" 215#
and I wouldn't outside there at night. The fast food joints <---(OB
food) are the only buildings that look decent but even those all have
bars on the windows.

Yep.
