Neighbourhoods: Belmont & Addison Avenue by 94

How is the neighbourhood on the north side between Belmont and Addison and closed off by interstate 94 from the west. Not sure palce is called, but it is close to a river ... I got a job in Chicago (for 6 months only) and am looking a place. Found some internet offers in that part of the town, but since I am tied up in TO for now, could you guys tell me what you think about that part of time?>
