Much of the South and West sides of Chicago are absolute disaster zones and more dangerous than a lot of third world countries. No amount of gun control will fix it. Only a military occupation would. The North side of Chicago is fairly safe however. Since the "East side" of Chicago is very sparsely populated - being that it's under Lake Michigan - what you're saying is that two-thirds of Chicago is a disaster zone and one third is "fairly safe."

The eastern most land obviously. Lake Michigan is the eastern border.

Even downtown areas like Gold Coast and Streeterville have had crime issues. North side of Chicago city proper, nope.. same nonsense going on in Roger's Park neighborhood, and assaults going on in the cool trendy college areas like Lincoln Park, etc. Otherwise one is left with all the hodge podge neighborhoods of cosmo libby elites, dandys, queers, trannys, illegals and all manner of deviants with some normality thrown in. Problem is everyone is on top of each other and it's a big mess. Sure there are sanctuaries with little cute neighborhoods but that's in transition..and still the scum is close by. People want to talk about the freaks in San Francisco? Not that I've seen, much more alternative in Chicago and it's much bigger. Much of the urban belly of the beast neighborhoods are out of Stephen King horror novels, dirty with rats, not to mention the illicit driving. There aren't enough police when the wilding rat packs converge either. The whole place needs a flush.
