Westside Homes for Rent

Westside in Gary features some of the city's newest housing stock. The area is known for its ranch-style homes set back from residential street lined with sidewalks and mature shade trees. The neighborhood attracts a wide range of residents, from young adults to long-time homeowners. Locals can explore Seberger Park, which has everything from a playground and basketball courts to a picnic area with a covered pavilion and grills. Nearby, Ivanhoe South Nature Preserve offers a tranquil retreat with trails through a savannah-like habitat. For more extensive outdoor activities, Indiana Dunes National Park is 15 miles away. Local shopping options include Brady’s This Is It Discount store, Buy-N-Save, Fresh County Market and Westside Foods.

The Hard Rock Casino south of Interstate 94 pairs gaming and concerts with dining options and memorabilia from Gary’s famous Jackson family. Chicago is about 30 miles north, and Midway International Airport is 25 miles away, making this a car-dependent neighborhood.
