[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the NP from 10:30. Thanks for the replies thus far.

Honestly, have no agenda re: Evanston. There were some sketchy people around (multiple times and areas), particularly around the L station (not far from campus). Just trying to get a feel for the surrounding area.

My DC is leaning heavily toward NU or Vandy and trying to weigh pros and cons.  [/quote]

NP here. The downtown area where restaurants and shops are is safe. There is WholeFoods, Target, CVS, tons of restaurants etc all blocks from the campus. Students go there a lot, both day and night. As with any area you should be safe and go in groups at night. There are some homeless people, but I haven’t heard of an issue. I’ve never been to the L station, so I can’t speak to that. NU runs a shuttle to the downtown campus where med and law schools are so don’t have to take train unless want to. 
We looked at all three of these and my DC fell in love with Northwestern. Liked Vanderbilt and was lukewarm on WashU.
