The product of over 16 months of research, incorporating demographic, geographic, and sociological data, and more than 30 months of field study and photography, the WildOnions.org Interactive Map of Chicago Neighborhoods takes you deep inside the city. It offers not only a sense of Chicago's natural and built environments, but of the vivid tapestry of the visual character of this wide and varied metropolis. Larger and better-known neighborhoods are color-coded according to their boundaries; smaller neighborhoods appear in smaller type without boundary coloring. Click on any portion for detailed information about your selection. To view additional communities outside the city of Chicago, visit the Neighborhoods and Suburbs Map or the Chicago Metropolitan Area Map.
