Location
Get Directions
Chicago sprawls across roughly 228 square miles on the southwestern shore of Lake Michigan, with nearly 28 miles of lakefront where glass towers catch the morning light and commuter trains rumble through neighborhoods shaped by more than a century of reinvention. This is a city built on bold architecture and bolder ambition, where you can stand beneath the steel ribs of the “L” tracks one moment and find yourself strolling through Grant Park’s open lawns the next.
Renters here choose between classic greystone walk-ups in Lakeview, converted lofts in the West Loop’s Fulton Market district, and sleek high-rises with lake views in Streeterville. Logan Square draws crowds to its Milwaukee Avenue dining scene and the elevated 606 trail, while Lincoln Park offers tree-lined streets near the free zoo. River North packs art galleries alongside bustling restaurants, and Hyde Park anchors the South Side with the Museum of Science and Industry nearby.
