you can easily buy a 3 bedroom home in this city in a neighborhood with good schools for under half a million if you're willing to do a little research.
It's also a bit of the Chicken and the Egg situation too, more often than not, CPS schools are "garbage" because of the parents, not the teachers. For example, if you picked up whatever k-8 school is in Englewood and plopped it at Southport and Grace (where Blaine is), with the same teachers, it would overnight be one of the top performing schools in the city...because the vast majority of parents give a damn about their child's education in the Blaine boundaries.
