Parking, stairs, and older buildings in Melrose Park 60160
About 80 percent of homes here were built before 1980, and the median year built is 1957. Older buildings usually mean narrow stairwells, tight doorways, and less room to stage a load, so the crew plans for the walk from the unit to the truck.
With about 43 percent of occupied homes rented and about 43 percent single-family detached, the pickup often happens at a shared entrance or a small front yard. About 7 percent of homes are mobile or manufactured homes, which have their own door and step constraints. Curb space is the real bottleneck in 60160.
Snow cover makes outdoor removal a spring job and moves everything else into the basement and garage. About 42 inches of snow and about 39 inches of rain fall here each year, so the crew works around the weather and the mud.
