Characteristics
The O'Fallon neighborhood is anchored by two major public parks, O'Fallon Park and Fairground Park. The area is primarily a residential neighborhood with streets lined with brick and frame single-family homes, two-family homes, and a few multi-family buildings. Many of the housing units are owner-occupied, but there is a visibly large amount of abandoned, crumbling buildings and vacant lots. Ones that have been maintained are pleasant brick homes with well-tended porches. The neighborhood has not remained relatively stable thanks to many multi-generation residents in social gridlock and a high percentage of African Americans under the poverty line.[2]
