Near West Side West of the Chicago River and adjacent to the Loop, the Near West Side is one of those eclectic community areas with just about everything. With historically ethnic neighborhoods, premier academic institutions, several medical centers, and even interesting food markets, this little part of Chicago is continuously evolving despite its supposed contradictory attributes. Being home to Little Italy, those who love Mediterranean cuisine are in luck, as are history buffs thanks to the many landmarks and museums nearby. Both very walkable and bikeable, residents can easily head over to one of many neighborhood markets for some fresh groceries, have a fun time with friends along Greektown’s nightlife corridor, or catch a Blackhawk’s game at the United Center. Also, several neighborhood taprooms serve special brews that will perfectly complement any good eats you happen to find along the way with your foodie friends. Excellent public transportation is literally only steps away, whether you want to explore other parts of Chicago or head out to the suburbs. Feel like traveling out of state? Begin your road trip via one of several expressways located close by, or board Amtrak, Greyhound, or Megabus to start your journey.
