Austin
Elevated Relative RiskOne of Chicago's green, foodie neighborhoods — known for parks, dining, attractions, scored from verified public data and 137 curated local places.
Parks & Recreation is one of Austin's strongest characteristics at 91/100. The overall score is reduced primarily by safety (42/100) and family friendliness (29/100). Safety indicators are one of the factors reducing the overall rating.
How We Calculate This ScoreRelative to other Chicago neighborhoods, month-to-month stability score strongest here (95/100), while late-night incident patterns contributes least (17/100). Reported incidents are down 7% versus the previous 12 months.
Note: rates are normalized by resident population. In high-visitor districts like this one, that denominator can overstate relative risk for the people actually here. Activity-adjusted safety arrives in model v1.1.

THINGS TO DO
The Neighborhood Intelligence™ Score (Model NIS-1.0) combines 8 verified categories — safety, walkability, transit, dining, parks, attractions, family friendliness, and nightlife — each scored 0–100 against every other Chicago neighborhood, then weighted (safety carries the most at 25%). The MySitti Rating™ converts that score to the 0–10 scale. Safety uses 36 months of official Chicago Police Department (CLEAR) data: violent and property crime rates, 12-month and 3-year trends, time-of-day patterns, and month-to-month stability. Categories without verified data are excluded and disclosed — never estimated. Scores refresh monthly with each data update.
