Find Apartments on Chicago’s Far Southwest Side

Far Southwest Side

Apartments are mingled with charming brick bungalows and wide open parks that define the look for much of Chicago’s Far Southwest Side. Education plays a big role in the region’s identity among Chicago’s community areas, with notable private schools Brother Rice and Marist High School located in Beverly and Mount Greenwood, respectively.

For apartment renters who seek quick access to downtown Chicago, Metra operates two rail lines that service the Far Southwest Side and the I-94 expressway forms the region’s unofficial eastern border.
