Archer Avenue is its main artery boasting of many fast food restaurants, taverns and pizza joints.

People are generally friendly, streets are tree-lined, it's fairly safe, block parties in the summer, church carnivals, and folks who will tell you their life stories at the tavern.
Garfield Ridge is one of the most underrated neighborhoods in the city of Chicago.
