Well I'll hope for the best. At least I have a good set of legs to maybe outrun the baddies. I always carry a tactical folding knife if things get very bad. It can't be worse than Iraq, but then again I had buddies that got my back.
The worst think that can happen is the bystander effect, and I hope that doesn't happen if I do get into a hassle.
No Bo-Hunk, I just moved to Boston and lovely Harvard Medical School...
Only you could think that Boston is on the north side of Chicago.

If you haven't already checked out the CTA site, they have a series of how-to guides that are well worth perusing. Now that the trains have transitioned exclusively to fare cards (buses take both fare cards and cash -- exact fare only, no change given), it pays to know how to use those cards before taking a trip on public transit.
I'm back in my own backyard for now.
It was a good experience overall. The cta bus's were unreliable at peak hours, getting as late as 10 minutes. During the first day of work I accidentally boarded the pink line from the clark/loop and accidentally ended up in Pilsen.
But the best part of the beach near lakeshore. The sand was perfect, and the city was very dog friendly. My dog enjoyed it in montrose dog beach, I think more than me.

Ten minutes late means that it was on time.

There are some good restaurants in Pilsen.

Glad you and your dog had a positive experience. Come back to visit any time.

While I miss Chicago, at times, I love Boston and everything it has given me.
Nobody ******* cares.
And doctors who don't operate on black people aren't as interesting as they think they are. ****, that goes for all doctors.

Anyway, mighty fine town Chicago is. Everywhere is safe during the daytime. And it's doubtful you'd ever find reason to visit the places that are risky at night.
