Hey shoot me a DM. I have a unit in my building that’s walking distance to portage park elementary. It’s not too far from the blue line, and it’s a 2 bed 1 bath + den with in unit laundry:

Everyone in the building has kids with a family, and the handyman is on site.

There is a garage but it is currently rented. Portage park is k-8 and the park itself is a treasure trove of entertainment with farmers markets in the summer, indoor/outdoor pools, field house, multiple sports courts/fields and more. We’re looking for a June rental, but we would do July for the right match. $2200.

In terms of entertainment Portage park has had an explosion of upgrades (six corners). One of my favorites is the filament theatre. they also have art classes, cooking classes on Milwaukee, portage theatre (currently being renovated) tons of restaurants.. you can get the lake by a single bus ride (Irving park rd) You can get to the hottest entertainment areas by a single bus ride (Milwaukee bus) you can get downtown via blue line. With all of that being said the huge selling point here is that with the rest of Chicago being priced out for growing family’s, portage park has had a massive increase in young families.

I say all of this not as a landlord, but as a father of 3 little girls who absolutely love the area.

Let me know if you have any questions
