The most ghetto neighborhood in all of Chicago. It is known for having a high murder rate. Its unemployment rate is 35%. Stay away from Englewood at night unless you like getting shot. It's filled with gangs and drugs dealers. You haven't seen ghetto until you've seen this place. It needs some serious improvement.

A half rich, half ghetto town.
Once you cross the train tracks on Palisade Ave, it becomes a whole new town. The people who live up in the hills are rich and have spoiled kids who all go to private school, and the ethnic makeup of the residents of the "Hills" are 60% White, 15% Latino 5% Asian and 10% Black.
The Ghetto, aka "Englehood" sucks. Its home to 70% black,20% Latino, 19% Asian and 1% White. Unless you have a gun, stay out of here.
Guy: Ok, Ill pick you up at 10, where do you live?
Girl: Englewood
Guy: Oh I see, I cant go out with you. Im not allowed in Englehood
Girl: No! Dont worry! I live on the Hills!

Englewood is a small city in bergen county, New Jersey. For all you idiots who keep saying calling englewood "englehood" and "the hills"... you're all ass holes. You probably have never travelled past the tracks and have no right to call it that. I'm a white upper middle class citizen living on the "other side of the tracks" and attended private school all my life. I can say first hand this is absolutely not a dangerous place. just because there are black and hispanic people who live on the other side doesnt mean you need a fucking gun. and my best friend who is black lives in what you call "the hills." the last person to shoot a gun in englewood was a disturbed white guy living in a mansion on "the hills." get your facts straight.
kelly: My mom said not to cross the tracks in englewood or I'll get shot by mean ethnic men.
me: shut up dumb racist bitch. Shove your chanel bag up your ass, and shut the fuck up.
