There are safe and affordable communities outside of the Chicago area, but the issue is jobs. For instance, Central Illinois is beautiful, and I was shocked with how much house you could get under 400k. I would check out Morton, Germantown, and Dunlap, IL. if you work from home. These communities are safe and offer a ton of amenities. All are located in the Peoria metro area.
Born & raised in Chicago. It has 77 communities that outline unique neighborhoods throughout the city. It has a gorgeous skyline and lots of beauty around the city. Is it a “perfect” city? No, because every major city throughout the nation have problems, too. However, with that being stated, Chicago will always be the center of attention from lovers & haters. Don’t believe in the negative hype on Chicago, it’ll always come back, as an exciting city.
