There are 178 official neighborhoods in Chicago.[1] Neighborhood names and identities have evolved due to real estate development and changing demographics.[2] Chicago is also divided into 77 community areas which were drawn by University of Chicago researchers in the late 1920s.[3] Chicago's community areas are well-defined, generally contain multiple neighborhoods, and depending on the neighborhood, less commonly used by residents.[2][4]
