Pretty Good

I moved to this apartment because it's only a 20-minute walk from the law school. My experience has been positive. It's an old building and the radiators are a little loud at times (and run a little hot, which I can't change), but I've had no major issues. The minor service requests I had were responded to quickly. One of my neighbors is obnoxiously loud at times, but that's just apartment life. Be warned that there's no doorman, and packages will be stolen.

Pretty good

It's an old apartment building, so the floors are creaky, the temperature can be a little finnicky, there've been a couple simple maintenance things.

But overall it's been a good experience. The location is fantastic, short walk to campus, right near all the shops/restaurants on 53rd/55th, one block from hyde park produce and cvs, three blocks from ratner. Management has been excellent about responding to maintenance requests. There's plenty of room, and each room feels like its own separate space, unlike a lot of one-bedrooms.

Pretty Pleased

I can definitely say that I am pretty pleased with this apartment building. The only downside is that parking is first come first serve. Therefore, sometimes when I get home from the lab (I am a chemistry student) at crazy hours of the morning I find that there are no spots open. Other than that, the people living there are mostly working professionals, not very many students. The neighborhood is also pretty quiet and very safe.

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.
