    Thanks in advance for your help on this. There is a possibility of me moving to Chicago after the first of the year to advance my career. I will have very little time to go up there and look for an apartment. I have a couple of friends up there and I might be able to establish a roomate, but in case that falls through...what are my options for the best value in apartments in that area. I would be going there for a job, would be working in the heart of downtown, and I am single and do not want to spend a fortune on my lease, but at the same time I do want a nice area where I don't have to worry about crime too much. Thoughts?

    edit: I used to live up in Naperville and have visited friends in the city many times and am generally familiar with the area...not sure if that helps or not.

    There are lots of great places around Wrigley Field stadium. Safe area with lots of fun places to hang out. And not that expensive and still easy enough to get to downtown.
