Jefferson Park
Located within the city limits of Chicago on the Northwest side, Jefferson Park also borders the suburbs, thereby providing its residents with the best of both worlds. Home to the Northwest Chicago Historical Society and even "Little Rotterdam," a small collection of Dutch colonial-style homes, this community area is very culturally diverse. Now a predominantly residential area, Jefferson Park is actually also one of Chicago's transportation hubs thanks to several CTA Blue Line stops, the Union Pacific / Northwest Line, and the Kennedy Expressway. Local buses can also be utilized easily. Called home by the largest number of city and county workers of all Chicago community areas, Jefferson Park is a great place to live. Boasting several parks, well-established entertainment venues, and home-style cooking, this neighborhood can quickly become your home and even continue to grow on you with time.
