Southern Flair In The Midwest 3.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) I have visited the city of Hazel Crest, Illinois and I feel a little out of place. Most of the residents here are black. It seems like a very tight knit community. The Mid-Western vibe is mixed in with the southern vibe in this city. It is an interesting mix of diversity.

The ...Read More housing market is a very competitive market. The price of living here in the city of Hazel Creek, Illinois is quite a bit higher than the normal prices in the mid-west. The city is in close proximity to other larger cities in the state, but this community offers local amenities.

There are many forms of entertainment located withing all of the little cities in the area. Many family friendly venues are available as well as the local parks and different places that promote the community. Being in this city is a unique adventure with a unique dynamic. It is going to take a special kind of person to break into this community. Read Less
