I love the family-friendly street I live on and the commitment to bettering the neighborhood. I would like to see our Alderwoman put more money into fixing the streets and sidewalks at our local parks. There is a peacefulness here that the media never speaks about when covering the south side of Chicago.

The thing that I like about Morgan Park is how calm and quiet it is. There are rarely any violence in this area. Something that could change is the renting prices for apartments and houses.
