It’s possible, but the South side is quite far for people priced out of the North. Austin, Garfield Park, and some suburbs are more likely destinations. Also North side has more Puerto Rican whereas South is more Mexican.
Most likely the children of families who settled on the Southwest side and other new immigrants need space, and the South side has space and mostly affordable prices.
