Why Live in Back of the Yards

Back of the Yards in Chicago, located about 7 miles southwest of the city center, is a neighborhood with a rich history tied to the former Union Stock Yards. The area features a mix of classic Chicago-style architecture, including Greystones, rowhomes, and bungalows, with many properties dating back to the early 1900s. New construction and rehabbed homes are also becoming more common. Home prices here are generally lower than in surrounding neighborhoods, making it an attractive option for investors. The community is part of the Chicago Public School District No. 299, with students attending the highly rated Back of The Yards College Preparatory High School. Sherman Park, one of the nation's first urban parks, offers a variety of recreational facilities, including an outdoor pool, sports facilities, and a library. Smaller parks like Lowe Park provide additional green spaces. The neighborhood boasts numerous locally-owned shops and restaurants, with popular dining spots such as Joe’s Grill, Tom’s Place, Restaurant Las Esperanzas Inc, La Cecina, and 4 Seasons. Annual events like Fiesta Back of the Yards foster a close-knit community atmosphere. Public transit options, including the Orange and Red Lines, and major interstates provide convenient access to downtown Chicago and beyond. Chicago Midway International Airport is about 5 miles away, and Provident Hospital of Cook County is less than 4 miles away for medical needs.
