Quote from @Jaycee Greene: I have a client in Kansas City, MO that had to make the EXACT same decision a couple of years ago.

Hey Hey @Veronica Mitchell - The most simple advice is to follow the CTA trainlines.I personally love the South East Corridor of Chicago which has Bronzesville, Kenwood, Washington Park, Hyde Park, Woodlawn, and South Shore.That area will continue to be gentrified because you have the lakefront and CTA trains.Others mentioned NW along the Blue and West along the Pink, Green, and Blue lines.

Also, check if there are incentives or rebates for upgrading to more energy-efficient systems in your area.
