Introduction
Calumet Heights is located on the South Side of Chicago and bounded by 87th Street on the north, South Chicago Avenue on the east, and railroad lines on the west and south (along 95th Street).
Transportation
Calumet Heights is serviced by the CTA Red Line, buses #15 and #J14, as well as the ME Train.
The area also has access to Lyft/Uber rideshare services and taxi services. Unfortunately, this means that rideshare accidents, pedestrian accidents, motor vehicle accidents, and public transportation accidents can be common in the area.
Demographics
Calumet Heights has a population of 13,732 in its 1.77 square miles. According to the most recent U.S. Census, the median income for the area is $49,923. The top employing industry in the area is healthcare, followed by accommodation and food, retail, administration, and other services.
Education
Calumet Heights students are primarily serviced by Chicago Public School District #299 and City Colleges of Chicago District #508.
When sending your child off to school you assume they will remain safe, however, this isn’t always the case. School bus accidents, gym and physical education accidents, lack of supervision, daycare accidents, playground injuries, and school district negligence are just a few examples of the types of school injury cases America’s Consumer Lawyer has experience with.
Attractions
Calumet Heights is home to some activities and attractions, which include:
- Bronzeville Children’s Museum
- Jesse Owens Park
- Artis’s Lounge
While most of the time spent at these Calumet Heights attractions will be enjoyable and uneventful, accidents can occur, including premises accidents, slip and falls, bicycle accidents, bus accidents, car accidents, drinking and driving, dog bites, and playground accidents.
