If you are interested in family practice geriatrics - you will see tons here.
It is very FMG friendly hospital and program (see link) however, you will be worked to death there. They are a poorly funded program so they never are full staffed at the levels needed to support the community around them.

It is not in the center of the city. Downtown Chicago is very safe. You have the L, you have plenty of police protection there because there are tons of major company's centered there.
hope this helps!
