Housing Recommendations? Working on a hybrid schedule near North Loop Terrace. Studio/1br preferred - but it seems prices have gone way up in the last year.

We need way more information to give you a good recommendation. What’s your budget? Do you want to be walking distance to work? Do you prefer high rises or walk ups? What do you value most in a neighborhood?

Prices have gone up for sure, but honestly it’s not too bad here compared to a lot of other cities. Splitting a two bedroom with a roommate will certainly help if money is tight.

Good call out, budget is up to $3,000 per month which is what I can spend, ideally $1500-2000.

Flexible with anywhere near a line that makes downtown accessibility easy. But, not committed to being right downtown. Open to roommates.

Curious to hear of anyone whose had a good experience with their apartment or suggestions on locations with reasonable prices and accessibility to downtown.

The renting process feels a bit opaque, so having a little trouble navigating what’s reasonably safe/young and is accessible to downtown.

I recently left a company because I didn’t see eye to eye with management about recruitment. The company I worked for regularly touts its commitment to D&I but in the recruitment process my candidates were routinely exited for having natural hair, being too old, too “urban”, etc. I’m not looking to bitterly blow up their spot but I feel like someone needs to be aware of this. This was done at the higher levels of local leadership and I have no connection with anyone in corporate. What to do?

Has anyone else gone back to relying more on public transportation with the surging Uber / Lyft prices. Trips to and from ohare are costing me about as much as the plane tickets themselves, and even simple things like meeting a friend for dinner in another neighborhood ends up costing around $80 in transportation costs. I haven’t taken buses and trains much since I’ve graduated but now it just feels like I’m throwing money out the window by not making the switch back.
