NEIGHBORHOODS OF CHICAGO
The 'neighborhoods of Chicago' are less well-defined than Chicago's seventy-seven community areas. These community area designations are not governmental, but are based on the names given by the Social Science Research Committee at the 'University of Chicago' in the 1920s for purposes of a long-term population study. The ever-changing nature of a city means that a few of the designations given in the 1920s may not still be in common use. There are around 213 named neighborhoods in the city today.
Chicago's neighborhoods change as a result of gentrification and immigration; it contains some of the most culturally rich communities in the United States. Each neighborhood maintains a strong identity and because of this, two different neighborhoods could seem like different parts of the world. One neighborhood might have multi-million dollar condominiums with a yuppie population, and another bordering neighborhood could have an impoverished immigrant ethnic contingency with street side fruit and vegetable marketplaces.
Listed below are Chicago's neighborhoods, given within Chicago's 77 well-defined community areas. Residents and realtors tend to assign new names as neighorhoods evolve. Often, two residents of the same neighborhood, even the same block, will describe different neighborhood boundaries, which may be based on zip codes, ethnic groupings, or simply personal opinion.
