You seem to live not too far from the intersection of cermark and cicero which I think is in Cicero, IL not too far from the Chicago line. I am glad that I have not lived in that area for many years and I certainly do not miss it. Within the core areas of the city itself a lot of the common box and chain stores were not so common.
If you are willing to travel there are good ethnic restaurants about the city. There use to be a good Polish Restaurant not very far from your current location. And from your name which ends in sky you just might know of it. At one time it was said there were more Polish people in the chicago area than in Warsaw.
