West Pullman is attracting investors and home renovators
Situated towards the outskirts of the city on Chicago South Side, West Pullman is slowly reaching its full potential. The area is popular with investors and flippers, taking advantage of the lower housing costs and the number of homes in need of repairs. While the neighborhood finds its footing, there are still plenty of amenities for residents. You can walk to the grocery store, Metra stations and plenty of parks and recreation spaces.
West Pullman features rows of beautiful houses in a quiet neighborhood.

Lower prices make the neighborhood more attractive to investors
Many of the homes here are older and not yet renovated, and many investors have noticed the potential of flipping properties on this side of town. “Everyone wants to be in Logan Square and Lincoln Park, but even the run-down homes over there are so much higher,” says broker Duval Williams with @properties Commercial. “The houses that need work are still fairly cheap. You can still find homes that need a lot of work under $50,000.”
Renovated homes typically range from the low $100,000s and the upper $200,000s, and the median here is about $190,000. The neighborhood median is about the same as nearby communities, like Pullman, Roseland and Calumet Park. However, it is about $100,000 cheaper than neighboring Morgan Park, located on the other side of the interstate, where homes and properties are a bit bigger.
West Pullman is mostly homeowners and older houses
Most properties in West Pullman are single-family homes. Historic Nationals, bungalows and the occasional ranch-style home line the streets. Every now and then, a block will have a brownstone three-flat available for the few renters here. Street parking isn’t really an issue, since most homes have detached garages in alleys behind the property.
Charming houses with well-manicured lawns are common in the West Pullman area.
Chicago bungalows with decorative brickwork & stained glass windows make each home unique.

Public transportation options available in West Pullman
Sidewalks line the streets, so you can walk to neighborhood amenities, like the parks, but bike lanes along 115th and 119th streets offer another way to get around. When going further than the neighborhood, you’ll either need a car or public transit. Buses stop along all the major streets, and the ME Metra line has three stops in the neighborhood. It heads downtown, taking about 50 minutes, but you can also get to The Loop in about 25 minutes on either Interstate 57 or Interstate 94.

Chicago Public Schools serves the West Pullman neighborhood
West Pullman students head to Chicago Public Schools, and there are multiple schools within walking distance of homes. Chicago has a school-choice district for its elementary and high schools, so you can apply to attend schools outside of your neighborhood and district zone.
You can walk to the grocery store from West Pullman
“Something good about West Pullman would be Marshfield Plaza,” says Realtor Carla Norton Brown with A Dwelling 4 U Realty. “There’s a good grocery store over there. They keep building it up.” South Side has a reputation for being a food desert, so West Pullmen residents benefit from being so close to the shopping center and its Jewel-Osco. Some fast-food chains line Halsted Street, like Dunkin and Subway. Maxwell Street Express has Italian beef sandwiches and Polish sausages.
The Original Maxwell Street Express restaurant is located in West Pullman.
West Pullman shoppers find everyday grocery items and produce at Jewel-Osco in Marshfield Plaza.
Marshfield Plaza is conveniently located near the I-57 expressway.
