City Hyde Park - Overall good, except the rent

The apartment is clean and spacious. The management is good as well. Location is good, as it is both near to law school, near to other apartments the classmates live, and also right above the supermarket.
The only downside is the monthly rent, which is very expensive compared to other buildings.

Amazing place if you have a roommate

Great apartment building with floor-to-ceiling windows. The rent is a bit high for the area but if you have 2 people splitting the cost, it's very manageable. The gym and resident lounge are great and front desk staff are very friendly. Whole Foods is literally in the basement and you can access it without every going inside. A metra stop is right across the street and there's also a bus stop that goes straight to the law school directly outside. Can't imagine a better and more convenient apartment!

Great Space to escape school

This a a great space. There are large windows in rooms so it is easy to get lots of sunlight, and it it easy to have some sort of a view. Building management is very friendly and helpful. Moving-in was made easy thanks to a dedicated freight elevator. Both building and apartment are accessible through the same key fob, so it minimizes key space. Apartments are very modern and there is a lot of room for cooking. Being situated above a Whole Foods has made it easy to go shopping on a routine basis and I definitely cook more, even with so many quick restaurants being close by.

City Hyde Park is the best

Live on top of whole foods, across the street from Metra and the bus stop, two blocks from LA fitness, and the apartment is nice and new. Close to the lakeshore as well.

I prioritized living close to the law school in an area with restaurants, coffee shops, and grocery stores. 5252 offered all these things. I can also easily walk my dogs to the lake from my building.
Reviewed by UChicago Law Student living at The Shoreland
Comfortable and walkable, decent selection of amenities (restaurants, grocery stores, etc.) and close to the lakefront. Not much nightlife

Hyde Park is a fantastic place to live. My girlfriend and I see ourselves staying there for a long time.

Great neighborhood close to the school. Many students live here, which is good for social events.

Hyde Park is a pretty place, very lowkey though. Not much going on (few bars & restaurants). A bit far from other happening neighborhoods in Chicago. There are crime issues (cars broken in, muggings) but not horrible--just have to be vigilant about avoiding risky situations.
Reviewed by UChicago Law Student living at The Shoreland
Hyde Park is quiet and feels a bit more like a neighborhood, but it is easy to get downtown via the CTA buses or the Metra Electric. The neighborhood itself has some nice cafes and things, but there is less to do outside the school
Reviewed by Chicago Booth Student living at East Park Tower
Hyde Park is the BEST. It's beautiful, active community of people who just really care about the neighborhood. I feel safer living in Hyde Park than any other neighborhood I've lived in Chicago (Lakeview, Logan, Wicker) because the people who live in HP have done so deliberately; they came here either due to the University or simply a desire to live here, which means people say hi on the street, strike up conversations in grocery lines, remember you when you see them at brunch, etc. That being said, I wouldn't recommend it for people who want to be in the middle of the action (the Loop). I chose HP because I have no patience for the bustle....and because it's way cheaper. My apartment would rent for twice as much if it were near MPP.

I don't get why people dislike Hyde Park so much. Although, to be fair, I do not go out much and when I do, I have a car. But, I really like being able to walk to school everyday rather than have to commute. Plenty of grocery options, especially now that trader joe's is open. Decent number of restaurants around and they're good; nothing spectacular. As for safety, be aware and don't walk by yourself at 2am; use common sense and you'll be fine.
