Bridgeport Is an up and coming town. A lot of new rebuilds. Its a town full of art! Home of the Bridgeport art Center, and the White Sox! Lots of great Asian restaurants since we are near China town, and quite the diverse community with all races leaving on one block! It is also a town full of retired police force and is known for it's history with racism and horrific acts of violence, but that seems to have changed quite a bit with a new generation having populated this area!
I moved here from Little Village when I was 17 years old. It was a drastic change but a good one. This neighborhood is quieter, has a wide variety of restraunts, things to do, and even bars. The parks here are beautiful as well! The only thing I would change would be making sure CTA buses come by more frequently.
Bridgeport feels like a very safe place, there are many popular stereotypical restaurants you will see there and they are all recommended! I have lived in Bridgeport for most of my life and attended my elementary years there and the environments are accepting to say at the most, I really love this neighborhood.
