“Affordable” being an subjective measure, here is a tier list of the best “romantic” (also subjective) restaurants in the area:

Low tier (~$10/plate): Bambino’s on Delmar, Nonnas, Greek Belly

Low-mid tier (~$15/plate): Catrinas Mexican, Piccolos, Archie’s Italian Eaterie, Zayka Indian, Civil kitchen, Cafe B-29,

Mid tier (~$20/plate): Bruno’s, The Rock, Rama Thai, Kai after dark, Flame, Habana Vieja (my personal recommendation), The Finely in Ozark,

High tier ($20+/plate): Progress, The Garrison, Finley river farms, Metropolitan Grill, Nicola’s Ristorante, Char, Jimms steakhouse, Gilardis, Harvest restaurant in Rogersville,

I lived on that same street as a undergrad in a house that is now gone to make room for those apartments. It's probably a safer little area now than when I lived there because of the apartments and it never felt unsafe back then. Used to be super convenient to walk to MSU when the weather was nice. House my friend and I rented was $650 for 2br 1ba so yeah those places want to make you pay out the nose for what is essentially a dorm. If you like the complex go for it, it's not a bad area to be in and convenient to downtown.

Ok so I work Maintenance at a large Distribution Center Located on East Kearney in Springfield, the other night I was sent by security to investigate a burning smell on the south side of our property. It was off property but you could see and smell the smoke for about an hour. Someone Burned something HUGE on Northside the other night. And it smelled like Trash burning.

I haven't posted any links, and your link doesn't work for me. However, Christie's original Facebook post does have video with it. It happened over the weekend, the Sheriff's department will likely respond sometime this week, as they tend to stretch several days before reporting on actions against the homeless.

While you're trying to champion for the sheriff's office, it's clear you choose to or are just generally ignorant of their actions. They made press releases several times over the last couple months regarding homeless raids, and, again, just recently did a press release on a raid in January while using pictures from a raid during the summer. It changes the optics when you show photos of nice warm green areas being "cleared out" and not the reality of camps and personal belongings being destroyed in the dead of winter.

Congratulations on editing your other post multiple hours after your initial hard-hitting comment of

>Im.sayimg people are asking for proof of these claims and you're citing a facebook post.

Yeah, an activist (who's a religious leader and literally started her church to help the homeless and is one of the most effective outreach initiatives in Springfield) automatically debunks the claim. The police, and Sheriff Jim Arnott are so much more Christ-like and genuinely good folks who do nothing but out of the goodness of their own hearts and never try to push a hate-filled agenda against those "different" from Jim Arnott. Ignorant.

Man I remember renting a 2 bed, 2 bath duplex with a yard and 2 car garage for about that just a few years ago...

It's so crazy how the cost of rent/living has changed so much here, so fast. I feel so fortunate to have been lucky enough to have bought a house just before covid hit and the housing market went full tilt.

O'Reilly corporate is always hiring in one department or another. Wages vary by position, but one huge advantage when you apply is you only need to fill out their online profile once and then you can apply for multiple positions. My initial application was for like 9 different things and I got a call back on 2 of them.

On the policy's website, there is a burglary at 6:38pm that the poloce responded to at 1822 E. Berkeley. Maybe the person refused to leave and got in a stand-off with the police.
