Why Live in Garfield Ridge

Garfield Ridge in Chicago offers a blend of suburban lifestyle and urban convenience, shaped significantly by the presence of Midway International Airport and Interstate 55. This neighborhood features a mix of Craftsman bungalows, Georgian houses, Cape Cods, and cottage-style homes, many with brick exteriors and detached garages. Archer Avenue serves as the main thoroughfare, lined with long-standing businesses and new establishments, including Weber’s Bakery, A Cup of Joe Coffeehouse, and Nicky’s Hot Dogs. Residents enjoy proximity to grocery stores like Jewel-Osco, Shop & Save, and Aldi, as well as hardware supplies from Southwest Ace Hardware. Parks such as Vittum Park and LeClaire-Hearst Park offer recreational facilities, including sports fields, playgrounds, and summer camps. The neighborhood is about 10 miles southwest of the Loop, with easy access to Interstate 55 and CTA buses along Archer, Narragansett, and Austin avenues. The Orange Line 'L' train from Midway Airport station provides additional transit options. Local events coordinated by the Midway Chamber of Commerce, such as the Halloween Jamboree Parade and the Garfield Ridge Farmers Market, foster a strong community spirit. Despite some noise from the airport and interstate, many homes have been updated with sound insulation to mitigate this issue.
