4 comments on “Oak Lawn”
In Oak Lawn, expect many amenities. Our community is diverse, we have a wonderful police and fire department, and wonderful schools. Travel within the community is easy; public transit on most major streets, dining in the downtown of Oak Lawn, and shop with ease. A town where almost everyone knows each other.
While Oak Lawn has some charming facets to the community, it lacks in public transportation. We have only the one train station, and fewer bus stations than I might like. Paired with these unfortunate realities, we have far too many busy streets (many of which are four-lane highways or larger) to allow frequent travel by bicycle. I cannot complain too much, however, as we have plenty of sidewalk to satisfy the pedestrian urge.
