How close is too close to live to Wrigley field if you want to avoid the traffic, noise, and large number of drunk folks during baseball season?

Used to live at Addison and Lake Shore. Noise was not an issue at all.

I live in Roscoe Village right next to Lakeview and it has been an extremely minimal issue, if at all…

I’m not asking if the area is safe when it is already one of the safer neighborhoods.

I lived 2 blocks from wrigley field for years and had very few issues with noise or drunk people. Only time the drunk people annoyed me was when I forgot there was a game and tried to take the El from Addison. Traffic can be bad Irving park to Belmont though. Tbh I never had much of an issue with it because I took the el so much instead of driving though.

For context, I’m looking at condos in Roscoe Village, Lakeview, and Lincoln Park at the moment and have excluded the square of Broadway to Southport and Belmont to Irving Park rd right around the stadium but want to make sure that is accurate.

Gotcha, good to know. I’m on Belmont now, but between Ashland and western so it’s not too bad

I can answer your question though - try side streets like Cornelia, Fremont, or around Grace and Dayton

You can go a block away from Clark and be fine.

Hi Fish
I saw a post about people looking for rental deals in Chicago.

My building is offering a promotion for anyone that's referred from a current resident. I get a discount credit on rent and you would get one month free, plus a $400 rental credit, plus a $500 Amazon gift card.

There's no move/out fees and rent varies from ~1600 to 2,000 depending if you want a studio, one-bed, or two-bed.

Lakeview Boystown area, new building with ceiling to floor windows.

If you're interested DM me!
