About this Neighborhood

Rogers Park is one of Chicago's 77 community areas, located 9 miles north of the Loop on the Lake Michigan shore. With a population of 54,991, it is known as the community that most closely matches Chicago's city-wide ethnic makeup. Its vibe score of 45 reflects solid baseline coverage: 20 restaurants, 1 coffee shop, 5 grocery stores, 5 parks, and 3 fitness locations, though the single coffee shop is a constraint. Foursquare characterizes the neighborhood through Mexican restaurants, parks, grocery stores, bakeries, pizzerias, a butcher, churches, and bars — a working-neighborhood profile with real community texture. The lakefront location and early 20th-century architecture Rogers Park is known for add ambient character that the score alone doesn't capture.
