I was born in Chicago Heights and know the area quite well. I like where I live now better.

I love it when some high school kid who has probably never left his home town comes on this forum and posts complete nonsense with no greater world perspective. I also love it when someone drudges up a very old thread for no apparent reason.

Chicago Heights, Harvey, Cal City, etc. are exactly why white flight occurs. People are afraid that their towns will end up as drug infested, morally handicapped, disgusting cess pools which are corrupted to the bone by local law enforcement and so-called mayors.
For example, this article is less than 1 month old:
FBI: Police officers were muscle for 'drug dealers' :: CHICAGO SUN-TIMES :: Chicago Crime
you have the worst of the worst chicago has to offer moving from projects to the ghettos of the burbs. don't fool yourself, corners in harvey and the heights make more money from crack than A LOT of corners on the south and west sides of chicago and of course these dope holes are run by gangs and guns. those people, who are ghetto ( ghetto meaning not caring about education or crime), slowly move through the southern suburbs like the black plague moved through Europe...hopefully, towns like tinley park and matteson can create a buffer zone so the filth doesn't spread into Will County from that point of enterance.
But there is no hope for Chicago Heights. Their police force is on the GD's, Latin King's, and 4CH's payroll. That town is long gone...if it wasn't for Marion Catholic, the entire town of some 30,000 odd people would be ghetto.

Wasn't Lynwood, Sauk Village, Steger, S. Chicago Heights, and Ford Heights all apart of Chicago Heights at one point? I think they all have the same zip code.

Those areas were largely farmland when Chicago Heights was founded. As for zips:
Steger - 60475
Lynwood - 60412
Sauk Village - 60412 (They don't have their own post office.)
Chicago Heights is 60411
