And I think Redfin got the reason for Andersonville’s awesomeness right…I moved here was because A-ville is a great compromise between hip and convenience, edge and congeniality. However, I have to question how Garfield Ridge made it to the No. 2 spot on the Chicago list. Believe me, I know Garfield Ridge…I lived in Garfield Ridge for some forty years (moved out in 2013) and my dad still lives there. And I know Brighton Park (because it’s really close to Garfield Ridge). Garfield Ridge isn’t what I’d call an exciting vibrant neighborhood. “Sleepy and boring” is how I’d describe it. Take away Bobak’s (Polish deli/sausage) on Archer Avenue (technically not quite in Garfield Ridge or Brighton Park) and there’s pretty much no reason to visit the area unless you need to catch a flight from Midway Airport. Garfield Ridge is pretty much the No. 1 reason I moved to Andersonville. :) Its inclusion makes me question the Redfin metrics. :)
