For residents of Chicago's South Side, the beaches of Lake Michigan have long been a source of neighborhood pride But now those beaches are in danger of disappearing because of flooding and erosion. Climate change is likely to make the problem worse.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel and it's only #9 in crime... by comparison, the nationwide crime rate was approximately 23.6 crimes per 1,000 residents in 2020.
..."Most Dangerous Chicago Neighborhoods
So, where in Chicago should you use more caution? Here are the Chicago neighborhoods with the most crime, according to AreaVibes:
West Garfield Park (33.7 crimes per 1,000 residents)
Washington Park (30.8 crimes per 1,000 residents)
East Garfield Park (28.9 crimes per 1,000 residents)
Englewood (28.4 crimes per 1,000 residents)
North Lawndale (28.2 crimes per 1,000 residents)
Grand Crossing (26.8 crimes per 1,000 residents)
West Englewood (26.0 crimes per 1,000 residents)
Riverdale (24.5 crimes per 1,000 residents)
South Shore (23.0 crimes per 1,000 residents)
Chatham (19.7 crimes per 1,000 residents)"...
So... my initial thought was at least the erosion would lower the crime rate... but... I was wrong... the Southside is actually lower than the National average.
