Around the Neighborhood
General
Oak Park apartments put renters in a thriving, diverse, and charming village located immediately west of the City of Chicago; hence there is no shortage of people who desire Oak Park apartments in this Chicago suburb. There are plenty of choices of Oak Park apartments for rent, from studio apartments to 1 bedroom to enormous vintage houses for rent. People new to the city often ask, "Is Oak Park Chicago?" Is it another neighborhood of the town, or is it a city unto itself? Bounded by Harlem Avenue, Roosevelt Road, Austin Boulevard, and North Avenue, Oak Park is a distinct and separate community from Chicago. But getting into Chicago is an absolute cinch for commuters, with several Blue and Green line 'L' stations, a Metra stop that has service to Chicago and the western suburbs, and easy access from the Eisenhower Expressway. Oak Park is also legendary for bicycling. Oak Park apartments are likely nearer to more bicycle-friendly streets than average towns. The village sits along the path of both the Grand Illinois Trail and the Illinois Prairie Path (two famously long and scenic bicycle routes). There’s also ample CTA bus coverage and car-sharing options as well.
Apartments for rent in Oak Park range in size from studio to 4 bedrooms with a wide range of monthly rent prices. The majority of available apartments are studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom floor plans. There are good choices for three-bedroom rentals; however, four-bedroom apartments are scarce and usually only available as single-family homes for rent.
Oak Park was the home of famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright. A great collection of Wright’s prairie-style single-family homes remains in the neighborhood, surrounded by endless streets packed with beautiful residences and front yards. Another famed resident is Ernest Hemingway, born and raised in Oak Park, IL. Indeed, nothing like you’ll find in the heart of Chicago.
The village contains 13 parks, a conservatory, two outdoor pools, a gymnastics center, an ice rink, and many shops and restaurants – everything from big-box retailers, supermarkets, and national franchise restaurants to boutiques, gourmet specialty stores, and homey restaurants. The school system is excellent, and there are hundreds of multifamily apartment buildings; the demographics here continue to change as the general population gets younger with each passing census.
