Top neighborhoods in Chicago

Far North Side
Far North Side
What it’s like to live in Far North Side
International diversity thrives across Chicago's Far North Side, where neighborhoods like Rogers Park and West Ridge showcase global influences through authentic restaurants, markets, and community institutions. Rental options include courtyard buildings, vintage walk-ups, and divided houses with more space than similarly priced properties closer to downtown. While the area offers excellent access to both Lake Michigan beaches and multiple transit options, commutes to Loop employment can take 45+ minutes despite good transportation connections. Particularly appealing to budget-conscious renters who value authentic diversity beyond marketing-created "international" atmospheres and appreciate genuine neighborhood character without corresponding rental premiums despite the distance from downtown attractions.

Far Southwest Side offers single-family homes with yards at more accessible rates than northern or central Chicago neighborhoods. Many properties feature classic Chicago bungalows and ranches with architectural details reflecting solid workmanship. While downtown commutes take longer than from closer-in neighborhoods and transit options are more limited, residents enjoy more living space, better parking situations, and stronger community ties than typically found in higher-density Chicago districts.
