Rogers Park

Although I have already written a review of Rogers Park before, I liked it so much, I decided to write a second review the next time I visited:
The area of Rogers Park near Sheridan Road and the lakefront is quite nice. Though pieces of it are a little sketchy still, overall the neighborhood looks amazing now! Great transit including the CTA Red Line and CTA local and express buses lies throughout the area. The neighborhood is really culturally and socioeconomically diverse, and lies very close to Lake Michigan, on which there are pleasant beaches and parks. Mixed use and purely residential apartments form the majority of housing stock in the area, many of which are garden apartments with well kept, lush gardens inside. Businesses in the area range form small-scale industrial to hipster coffeehouses to drug stores. The apartments themselves are between three and six floors for the most part. On side streets, Chicago bungalows, other houses, and small two and three flat apartments make up the majority. An amazing place!
