    Rogers Park exists too. It is the only truly beachfront living neighborhood in all of Chicago.

    Hi Peter; There are 77 community areas in Chicago. Each community area may have more than one neighborhood in it.

    Good point. Other than Andersonville, I mostly stuck to the broader areas.

    Edgewater is getting expensive... And rightfully so. I've been up here for 20+ years now and the price appreciation is amazing. Latest sale on our block was for $1.43M. All of the neighbors are shocked. Thank goodness I got in when I did. I will have to leave when I retire but I will honestly doubt I will never live on this great a block ever again. The people here really are amazing and make it a great place to live.

    Edgewater is still fairly reasonable. Rents and prices have risen steeply everywhere in every city.

    Out of 77 community areas he only saw fit to mention those on the North Side and downtown. Pilsen, Bridgeport, Brighton Park, Ukrainian Village are working-class, but just as livable with small businesses, Chinese, Mexican, Greek restaurants and bakeries. And the South and West sides have no snob appeal presented here.

    good video, but as someone that was born on the NW side and lived in many neighborhoods on the north, west and south side, I'm wondering why no love for the south side. Hyde Park, Bronzsville, Pilsen, even south loop are all great Southside neighborhoods. I guess I'll have rot make a video showcasing these areas.

    I considered adding in some south side neighborhoods like Kenwood, Hyde Park, and Pilsen, but after really looking at it, I just felt that the neighborhood I mentioned in this video offered more value. That being said, those are all great neighborhoods still.

    It's not ideal. I recommend looking into West Loop, Pilsen, and Oak Park which will all have a much shorter commute for you.

    You'll need a car. West Loop, South Loop, UIC/Little Italy area in the city. Oak Park is vibrant suburb. Forest Park is becoming a fun, yet still affordable little suburb, too.

    Forest Park is technically a suburb, but it feels like it's part of the city. You still get great access to public transit and it's fairly walkable.

    There are much better options outside if Chicago. Especially if you are moving to Illinois because of work in another city outside of Chicago.
