Here's where Austin meets Oak Park:

yeah maybe not a specific road, but there are some very rough/dilapidated neighborhoods in Chicago so there must be some sort boundary. i mean, a quick google search of "bad neighborhoods Chicago" brings up plenty of pics that look a lot like N. STL to me.

also, can't believe I forgot to mention Philly. i could not believe the condition of some West Philly neighborhoods that i walked through. difference is, their stuff is still (barely) standing, whereas much of N. STL has been cleared.
