Rogers Park Apartment Living
Neighborhood Vibe
There’s plenty of lakefront available in Rogers Park Chicago to soak in a morning sunrise. Next, you might spend some time with a good book or podcasts at a coffee shop that roasts their own beans. From there you could tour the murals alongside the CTA tracks on Glenwood Ave and wind down with a beverage at Rogers Park Social.
Heart of the Neighborhood
Rogers Park Chicago is home to Loyola University’s lakefront campus, and many Loyola students reside either on campus or close by, which helps give the neighborhood an energetic vibe. Rogers Park is also one of the most diverse neighborhoods in Chicago, both in terms of ethnicity and age. It’s not uncommon to find Rogers Park residents who’ve been in the neighborhood for several decades. The lake is easily accessible from pretty much anywhere in this neighborhood, and residents take full advantage of the public parks, green spaces and beach along Lake Michigan.
What We Love Most
Heartland Cafe is a Rogers Park landmark for poets, artists and political activists. It was the meeting place and welcoming space for many radical artists over the years. Now it’s still closely associated with its radical roots of the counterculture heyday, while still being a friendly place to grab a bite to eat or sip coffee while enjoying a good book.
Best Way to Get Around
The Red Line is the most direct way into downtown, there’s the no. 36 Broadway Avenue bus for local commuting, and Lake Shore Drive is the scenic route to Grant Park, Soldier Field and beyond.
