Neighborhoods of Chicago
The neighborhoods of Chicago lay within Chicago's seventy-seven community areas. Despite that static nature of the community areas, Chicago's neighborhoods change as a result of gentrification and immigration. Chicago contains some of the most culturally rich communities in the United States. Each neighborhood in Chicago maintains a unique 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 young yuppie population and another bordering neighborhood could have an impoverished immigrant ethnic contingency with street side fruit and vegetable marketplaces. Below are the neighborhoods of Chicago's community areas. Keep in mind that because of the dynamic nature of the neighborhoods there may be some neighborhoods not listed, and there may be some neighborhoods that have since changed its identity or name. The names of the neighborhoods, unlike the community areas, were coined not by a governing body but by informal means.
