Area[edit]

I don't know what the source is for the area given in the info box (32.47 sq mi), but it seems like it must be wrong. The community area is about 5 miles wide (east-west) and the north-south distance from the most northerly point to the most southerly point is also about 5 miles, giving a maximum possible area of 25 sq mi, but the true figure must be more like 2/3 of that as the area does not fill a 5 mi X 5 mi square. —Jeremy (talk) 00:17, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
