Crime is MPD Part I reports per 1,000 ACS residents — not a judgment of who lives here. Home and rent figures are ACS medians, not live MLS. Read the method.
On the ground
What it is like to live here, beyond the scores.
Bungalows, a commercial strip, and a south-side family default between Whittier and Minnehaha Creek. Quiet enough for a weeknight, close enough to Eat Street for a Thursday. This is the neighborhood people move to when the Wedge gets loud.
Houses, alleys, a park. Downtown is a bus or a bike on the Greenway. Weight family and schools. Nightlife is a short ride north, on purpose.
