Its streets are dotted with high-rise condos, coops, and townhouses and mixed with fabulous green spaces — like Millennium Park or Grant Park, which offer ample space for recreation and relaxation for residents and tourists alike. The famous elevated tracks of the rapid transit “L” train network can also be found here. Central Chicago is known for boasting pricier properties than other areas.

    North Side

    This part of Chicago is the most densely populated residential section, featuring plenty of schools and retail outlets. It features a charming mixture of townhomes with beautifully landscaped yards, traditional brick bungalows, cottages and condos. Notably, the many miles of beaches along Lake Michigan provide fantastic recreation opportunities. And, Lincoln Park — with its zoo and conservatory — can also be found in this part of the city.

    South Side

    As the most massive area of Chicago (covering approximately 60% of its land area), the South Side contains various tourist attractions, such as the Museum of Science and Industry. It’s also home to two of the city’s most significant green spaces, Jackson Park and Washington Park. Former notable residents of the South Side include the 44th president of the United States, Barack Obama, and “The Greatest,” pro boxer Muhammad Ali.

It also hosts the University of Illinois at Chicago, along with a few famous sports teams, like the NHL’s Chicago Blackhawks and the NBA’s Chicago Bulls.
