Evanston Apartment Living
Neighborhood Vibe
Apartments in Evanston let residents enjoy many of the same cultural highlights such as art, music and fine dining (with drinks, obviously) as their Chicago neighbors to the south.
What We Love Most
A typical Saturday for an apartment renter in Evanston might begin with a visit to the massive farmer’s market, followed by a jaunt to the shops in downtown Evanston. Next, they might choose to stay fit with an acrobatic exercise course in The Actor’s Gymnasium or go for a jog along the lakefront. They could wrap up their evening by screening a flick at the 18-screen movie theater near the Davis Metra stop or catch a live jazz set over dinner at legendary Pete Miller’s Steakhouse on Sherman Ave.
Best Way to Get Around
Apartments in Evanston are serviced by the CTA Purple Line, which runs rush hour trains to and from downtown Chicago. The Metra Union-Pacific North Line operates stops at Central, Davis and Main streets in Evanston, and CTA buses operate routes throughout the city as well as the suburban Pace bus.
Heart of the Neighborhood
Evanston has several pockets of happening retail, shopping and dining destinations, and these include the Davis Street "downtown" Evanston district; Central Street near the Metra station and Green Bay Road; and Main/Chicago to the south.

Around the Neighborhood
General
Evanston is a suburban community immediately north of Chicago’s city limits. Evanston was once considered for annexation by Chicago but resisted to maintain its own identity as a smaller city on the shore of Lake Michigan. Evanston is home to Northwestern University and the nationally ranked academic powerhouse Evanston Township High School. Evanston maintains a wide variety of apartments from vintage to new and all price points.
