In the late 1800s factories and railroads sprung up that attracted Poles, Germans and Scandanavians, which is reflected in the many mom-and-pop shops and dinning options within this community today. Within this neighborhood is the community of Jackowo, which translated means, “The place of the Hyacinth,” one of Chicago’s most vibrant and dense Polish communities.

Avondale offers a variety of housing options including frame houses, modest brick bungalows, two flats, multi-units and condominiums, with moderate pricing.
