This didn't happen in Chicago, it was in an upscale suburb 30 miles north of it in Lake County.

Really? I live an hour north of New York City, and the difference between New York City and Putnam County is like day and night in terms of crime and violence.

In fact, Scarsdale, NY, is just outside of New York City (closer to to it than where I live), and that is one of the wealthiest communities in the country with virtually no crime rate.

But if you say that Highland Park and Chicago are essentially the same in terms of crime and violence, I'll take your word for it since you live and work in that area.

It is somewhat of a drop off in crime, but not as dramatic as you would think, or expect. It's just not a friendly place. Doesn't matter where in Chicago, our guys hate delivering up there. They're like, can't someone in the area build their cabinets? They hate it, absolutely hate it. Its like the wild west.

I know that Chicago is one of the highest crime-rates in the country (3rd overall), but I just looked up the crime rate in Highland Park, and it is not even close to the city of Chicago. I think you may be mistaken by lumping it in with Chicago as virtually the same because they are geographically within 30 miles of each other, but OK.
