	Neighborhoods of Chicago - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Despite that static nature of the community areas, Chicago's neighborhoods change as a result of gentrification and immigration.
		One neighborhood might have multi-million dollar condominiums with a yuppie population and another bordering neighborhood could have an impoverished immigrant ethnic contingency with street side fruit and vegetable marketplaces.
		Keep in mind that because of the dynamic nature of the neighborhoods there may be some neighborhoods not listed, and there may be some neighborhoods that have since changed its identity or name.

		The neighborhoods we have decided to call “hot” are not necessarily places where buyers will get rich by investing in real estate, but these areas do show the promise of above-average appreciation for years to come.
		Some neighborhoods not on the list may well be “hotter” in terms of investment value, but if they did not have a certain level of safety or services we did not include them.
