"Car Dealerships and Cops"

See Title ;)

This first thing to say about this road is that it is notorious for its speed traps. Just in the mile long strip of it which i used to use to get to work, there are 3 immensely popular places for cops to hide. And they are really good places (for them :( ) where you dont notice them until its late.


if you keep going north on this road you get to lagrange, home of walmart, home depot, and 8x car dealerships. I got my most recent car from the nissan dealership here when the dealer gave the best price compared to others.

"Yuck. Barf. Gag me."

What can I say about archer ave? How about: Crappy! This was part of my route to work, back when i had a job. The road is CONSTANTLY full of potholes. I mean constantly. It gets to the point where you drive way out of your way just so you dont have to ride on this road and ruin your car. the road connects justice (yuck) to willow springs (much nicer) and its probably cost me 500 in car repairs over the years.

"Main road through hickory subdivision"

88th ave is a main road which connects a hickory hills subdivision to palos hills on the south and justice on the north. The speed limit here is 35 mph and there is a large amt of stuff on the road, including: a park (glen oaks), a school (glen oaks school), a police station, and more. Dont travel too far north, it gets ghetto in justice.

"Small connector st in the middle of hickory"

92nd place is a small street which feeds into one of the main roads in the hickory subdivision: 88th ave. In this way, its location is nice. This street is at the top of a hill which is nice because we get lots of rain here in hickory and this way you dont have to worry about flooding. As someone who lives on the bottom of a hill, trust me on this one ;)

"Great street. Couldnt ask for better!"

86th court in hickory hills is a small road which connects to 95th st and 92nd place. This is one of the better streets in hickory and its pretty close to the middle of a large subdivision. In general, the houses on this street are larger and newer than most other streets in hickory. Most people living here are families with parents in their 50s

"great to raise a family here"

82nd ave is a great place to raise a family. it basically has everything that an upcoming family would want or need. This includes things like grocery stores (jewel and another similar one which i forget the name of), a BIG park (Kasey meadow, which has baseball/softball/tennis and more), and even a church on the corner of 82nd/91st

"small street in a subdivision"

80th court is a little street that is near the corner of 95th and roberts rd. Location wise, this street has pros and cons. The pros are that it is walking distance from Jewel grocery store and the pit rib house. The cons are that 95th and roberts are busy (loud) streets and the smell from the pit is strong and gets old fast.

"small street in hickory"

79th ct is a small street in hickory hills. Personally, i would not recommend this as a place you would want to live. First, its very near the intersection of 95th and roberts (the busiest intersection in all of hickory hills). Second, the main attraction of the street is the Wendys, not exactly an impressive boast.

"Major road through hickory hills"

Roberts rd is one of the main roads which goes through Hickory Hills, connecting it to palos hills on the south, and Justice on the north. The road contains some nice eateries (check out mickeys on 107th), but overall its not the best road. Its littered with apartments and a few residents appear in sex offender databases.

"Main street through my town"

This is the main road that goes through hickory hills. The road consists of 2 lanes each way and the speed limit is 35 mph, at least through the hickory hills part. Recent construction is present about half a mile east of roberts rd, which makes driving that way quite unpleasant.
