North Shore Area Community Information

Evanston and the surrounding communities are part of the Chicago area known as the North Shore. Most of the communities border on Lake Michigan. There are several towns just to the west that are also included. Recreation, world class schools, excellent public transportation, magnificent shopping, diverse employment opportunities and a wide range of housing options are some of the reasons people are drawn to Chicago's North Shore.

There is no way I could give you all there is to know about the North Shore area on one page or even one website. You can use this page to find the basic information you need to get started in researching the area. I am a lifetime resident of the area and I am still discovering more about the "Shore" every day.
