The neighborhood is a nice place to live at. It is a really quiet place to basically live at. There isnt alot of people just walking around, there isnt alot of loud talking people that be out at 12 am in the morning. The neighbors are very friendly
Berkeley is centrally located. Easy to get to interstate to go to downtown Chicago. They are constantly upgrading the area. We are near a prairie path that joggers, dog walkers and bikers use.
Moved to Berkey a few years ago wanting to find a small quiet town outside the city but close to Metra. I absolutely love that it's a small, tree covered town minutes from the metra. I can get into downtown in 35 minutes!
