Neighborhood

A college town housing the University of Illinois at Chicago, University Village is a bustling neighborhood just two miles west of downtown Chicago. With a lively student population, there’s a wide range of apartments and condos for rent in the area, varying in expense. University Village is just minutes from everything downtown has to offer: Shedd Aquarium, the Art Institute of Chicago, Grant Park, the Chicago Theater, and so much more.

A National Historic Landmark and a true representation of Chicago’s history, the Jane Addams Hull-House Museum is a must-visit in University Village. This house and museum is a dynamic memorial to social reformer Jane Addams, the first American woman to receive the Nobel Peace Prize, and a hero to the Chicago community.

Vibrant restaurants reside around town, popular with residents and university students alike. Visit the original polish sausage stand, Jim’s Original, for a classic hot dog stand experience, or venture over to Lalo’s on Maxwell.
