With small-town charm and proximity to the big city, Alsip attracts a wide range of residents who are looking for a home with a close-knit feel. Nestled in the Cook County suburbs, Alsip’s schools are one of its best attributes. Though, there’s much to be desired here.

The village is home to a local soda bottling company, family-friendly apartments, and a world of comforts. On South Cicero Avenue and Interstate 294, you’ll find a plethora of coffeehouses, conveniences, and restaurants.

Alsip is ideal for those who work in nearby Chicago, so their commutes don’t feel as long (and agonizing). However, you’ll adore the area’s vibe and spending your weekends exploring Lake Katherine Botanic Gardens.
