What I like about Calumet Heights is it is quiet and pretty peaceful around here and there are multiple bus routes that you can take.

Pretty cool and friendly area. Other than the frequent police and ambulance, due to being up the street from Advocate trinity. This is a pretty calm area. Shopping centers are near. Not a lot of traffic due to the wider streets in this area. Overall its pretty nice to me. Glade to call it home.

Almost all the neighbors smoke cannibis and the smell spreads across the block, which causes children to recognized such a smell and question their parents about it. Sometimes when I look outside, I see suspicious people trying to open cars. Whenever the police is called anywhere, they show up fifteen minutes after they were suppose to be there.
