Chicago's Near North Side Community Area

The Near North Side community area is certainly the most affluent of Chicago’s 77 communities.  Featuring abundant parks, bike paths, lakefront and beach access, it is also one of the most livable areas. Streeterville’s lakefront high rises, the Magnificent Mile’s retail promenade, Gold Coast mansions combine with Old Town’s history and River North’s world class art galleries make for the most vibrant neighborhood in the Midwest.  The proximity to the city’s central business district only adds to the community’s allure.
