Hi everyone;

I'm an international student moving to Chicago to study at University of Chicago. I wanted to ask you where do you think I should look for housing as I have heard bad things about the neighborhood which university is located. I should mention that I want it to be convenient to get to the school from my home using public transit.

Tnx

University of Chicago is located in the neighborhood of Hyde Park. It's a nice neighborhood but there are some very not-nice neighborhoods immediately south and west. Hyde Park and Kenwood are two neighborhoods you should look if you want to have quick and convenient access to the university.

President Obama's house is in Kenwood, four blocks from the university. The neighborhood can't be that bad, right?
