Our Take
Hyde Park offers great schools, a decent commute to downtown, and a strong median income, but it’s pricey, not very walkable, and has a high rental rate. It’s worth considering if you value proximity to work and good schools, but you’ll likely need a car and be ready for higher housing costs.
