Still associated with Swedish and German heritage in Chicago, North Park today is a diverse community area which includes part of Chicago's Koreatown as well as a thriving college community in the liberal arts college atmosphere of North Park University (once a Swedish university). A visitor to North Park is likely to hear many languages in addition to English, foremost among them Spanish and Korean, but also Urdu, Tagalog, Greek, and others. [More]
