Bordered by 59th Street to the north, Bell Avenue to the east, 75th Street to the south, and Central Park Avenue to the west, Chicago Lawn is known as "Marquette Park" to the locals, in reference to the city park of the same name in the community, the largest on the southwest side. It is also home to Nabisco's Chicago plant, the largest bakery in the world.

Where To Live
Chicago Lawn is an all-around affordable neighborhood with ample parking and decent proximity to the CTA. Moving closer to main streets, such as Western Avenue, South Francisco Avenue, South Artesian Avenue, and West 65th Street, will prove to be more costly.
