Harwood Heights is a small, self-governing village in Cook County that forms a quiet enclave completely surrounded by the city of Chicago. Covering just one square mile and home to roughly 9,000 residents, it carries the feel of a tight-knit suburb while sitting about 20 minutes northwest of the Loop via the Kennedy Expressway. The village has charted an independent course since the 1940s, when Chicago declined to annex it, and that spirit of self-determination still shapes its identity today. Norridge, its closest neighbor, shares the same enclave and offers additional retail and dining along the Harlem Avenue corridor.
Housing in Harwood Heights skews toward well-maintained apartment communities, with a mix of mid-rise buildings and garden-style units that reflect the area's postwar growth era.
