    Haha, sounds a lot like my neighborhood. Rogers Park in Chicago is described by a bunch those real-estate code words, like “up-and-coming,” “diverse,” “colorful,” “vibrant.”

    Here, we say that we’re “gentrifying” and “improving” by filling potholes and installing parking meters. Plus, our CTA stop just got a new paint job. Of course, it still smells like urine, but the walls and ceiling look great.
