“One of the most sought-after areas of the city, the Chicago neighborhood of Lakeview is the most populated area in the Midwest largely due to its great dining, shopping and nightlife. Its four mile proximity to the Loop makes it a prime real estate destination. It is also home to the Chicago Cubs’ Wrigley Field, and a part of the neighborhood is named for it. Lakeview is one of the 77 community areas of Chicago, located on the city’s North Side. Lakeview is the 2nd largest of the Chicago community areas by population. Lakeview includes smaller neighborhood enclaves: Southport Corridor and Wrigleyville. Wrigleyville, another popular district, surrounds Wrigley Field, home of the Chicago Cubs. In 2013 Money Magazine names Lakeview as number 3 of its Top 10 Big-city neighborhoods for its selection of Best Places to Live. The pleasant surprise of Lakeview & Wrigleyville is that once you venture 20 steps from the main shopping, restaurant and bar/club areas, you’ll find yourself in beautifully maintained tree-lined streets, with rows of lovely houses in all manner of architectural styles, ranging in age from near-century-old to 3 days ago.“
