The Dan Ryan Expressway and I-55, located on the eastern side of the neighborhood, connects residents to Downtown Chicago, the south suburbs, and beyond. For those who prefer to take the train, the CTA Red Line offers quick service for the 4.4-mile ride.

Bridgeport is like no other. In recent years, it has developed into a very diverse community, with a lot of things to offer. However, the price of Bridgeport is over the top and not quite worth it. The amount of crime is heightening as well, and it is making it to be very difficult to want to stay. The White Sox are a burden on the neighborhood due to the ridiculous people they hire to maintain the traffic.

I like that everyone knows everyone and that we can all come together when something happens. I don't like the crime and the upped drug activity in the neighborhood .

While in the past, the neighborhood was predominantly Irish and Polish immigrants, it mostly consists of Chinese-American or Chinese immigrant families. Pretty great neighborhood, lots of different restaurants and transportation nearby, though maybe not the cleanest place to live.

Good quality of living with still affordable units.Not a great selection of restaurants that offer healthy fare.Quiet and safe in most areas. GOSSIP CENTRAL.. There is a small nasty hipster gang at at a coffee shop here that you need to avoid.Very odd and very toxic people.
