I would love a Trader Joe's in West Ridge since there is none around us. A good place for the store would.be at Lincoln Village corner of McCormick and Lincoln Avenue. There is a vacant building where Famous Footwear used to be. Please consider.

It would be AMAZING to have a Trader Joe’s in our neighborhood! We love their customer service, their prices, the quality of their products! We usually go to the Glenview location to stock up. This only happens only about five times a year. If a Trader Joe’s was in our area, we would be there WEEKLY!

Hello, I am a huge Trader Joe's shopper and this store would be a great asset to our community. It has a large variety of international cuisine, fresh salads and fruits, which is the perfect compliment to West Ridge.

Live in the 6000 block of Sheridan and have to rely on neighbors to drive me to my beloved TJ's. Doesn't have to be next door, but a location close to the Clark/Ashland/Devon intersection will allow me to shop there at least weekly if not more!

Something convenient for both West Ridge and Rogers Park would be good for an area without a lot of larger grocery stores and coming to the most diverse area of the city would make a perfect partnership.

Currently, Trader Joe's has stores in downtown Evanston and in Glenview which are somewhat inconvenient locations for West Ridge residents. It would also provide residents with an alternative to Whole Foods, Mariano's and Jewel which are located in Lincolnwood, Skokie, and Evanston.
