There are more than 200 neighborhoods in Chicago,[1] but there is no official list of the city's neighborhoods or their boundaries.[2] Neighborhood names and identities have evolved over time due to real estate development and changing demographics.[3] Chicago is also divided into 77 community areas which were drawn by University of Chicago researchers in the late 1920s.[4] Chicago's community areas are well-defined, generally contain multiple neighborhoods, and are less commonly used by city residents.[3][5] More historical images of Chicago neighborhoods can be found in Explore Chicago Collections, a digital repository made available by Chicago Collections archives, libraries and other cultural institutions in the city.[6]
