Great Service
My apartment is nothing special and there aren't many amenities to the building besides the laundry room, but for the price, this place is great. Amazing location, great engineer and mostly quiet community. People aren't so social, but I don't mind that. Sometimes I wonder if there is a building-wide fire alarm system (I know there's smoke detectors, but I haven't seen pull stations or alarms), but otherwise it seems safe. Any time I have a problem, which is never, the engineer does a great job of responding quick.

Lakeview Reviews
It has numerous sub-neighborhoods, including the super bro-y Wrigleyville and the still queer Boystown. It has a mix of lower income co-op housing and slowly dying out SRO housing with luxury condos and high rises.
The area is generally safe, though the occasional mugging does occur and bar fights happen closer to the stadium on the regular.
The neighborhood is often loud and bustling with people, with hospitals on both ends (St. Jo's and Advocate to the south and Thorek to the north) so a lot of ambient ambulance and fire truck noise is normal, plus sounds from people going to and from the many bars and restaurants lining Broadway, Belmont, Halsted, and Clark. Festivals draw neighbors into the streets and block traffic frequently during the summer, including Pride, Market Days, Lakeview Arts Fest, and others.
