Why Live in C Lee Carey Neighborhood Association

The C. Lee Carey Neighborhood Association in Springfield is a community-focused area named after the city's first Black superintendent of recreation. It features affordable homes, with many properties being rentals, and a strong sense of community fostered by local churches and organizations. Zion Baptist Church, St. Paul African Methodist Episcopal, and Pilgrim Rest Missionary Baptist Church are key community hubs, offering programs like Vacation Bible School and hosting significant events. The neighborhood association actively advocates for better services and organizes annual cookouts. Homes, primarily built between the 1890s and 1950s, are mostly bungalows and ranch styles, often featuring front porches and chain link fences. While many homes need updates, they remain some of the most affordable in Springfield. Children in the area attend Sandburg Elementary and Southeast High, both highly rated schools. Local dining options are a highlight, with Carter's Fish Market, The Old Luxemburg Inn, PT's Barbecue, and Boyd's New Generation frequently recognized in the "Best of Springfield" list. Although there are no parks within the neighborhood, Eisenhower Park, about a mile away, offers playgrounds and baseball fields, and the nearby Eisenhower Aquatic Center provides year-round swimming. The neighborhood is 2 miles from downtown Springfield, accessible by a 15-minute bus ride, though train crossings can occasionally disrupt traffic.
