Bridgeport has a very inclusive community with plenty to do and visit, especially Chinatown and nearby mueseums.

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 .

The neighborhood is very safe in my experience, and I have lived here over the past 7 years. Lots of kids in the neighborhood for children to get along with and the neighborhood is very festive if you're into that. I do wish there were more activities available within walking distance for kids to be able to go enjoy, but other than that, my experience has been an overall positive one living in this neighborhood.

I moved to Bridgeport with my parents in late 2018 and truth be told, at that point in time the neighborhood was going through a shift, it was a good one as the housing market was booming and we moved in to a new construction. our neighbors are always friendly and i always see families walking their kids or dogs around. Im able to get to school easy via the MANY CTA busses and stations around. All in all it's a good shifting neighborhood.
