Is the area near Kostner & Marquette dangerous or safe? (Places near midway)

We want to move near midway from Brighton Park. (Parents & 2 infants) I was considering an apartment near Kostner & Marquette, but I know Marquette Park is dangerous, which is a little while away. I would appreciate information about areas near midway that have CTA transportation. Thank you! :]

It is a quiet neighborhood (except for the planes landing every few minutes). I'd say that West Lawn is considerably quieter than Brighton Park. Marquette Park's bad reputation comes from the Chicago Lawn neighborhood to the east, but West Lawn is quite safe. It also has in my opinion the best Italian Beef joint in Chicago (Tony's Beef on 70th and Pulaski).
