About South Chicago

Buttressed between various passenger and freight transmodal nodes, South Chicago is well situated for residents to get to their places of employment throughout the metropolitan area. Opportunities for recreation abound here, too, with the South Shore Cultural Center, Harborside International Golf Center, and the Museum of Science and Industry all within its confines. For a true getaway, residents are near Chicago’s Midway Airport to the northeast.

In addition to area employment that supports Midway Airport, South Chicago is home to businesses that capitalize on the numerous distribution points, access to fresh water for manufacturing and data hosting processes, and a congregation of warehouse and distribution centers. Local employers include automobile manufacturer Ford Motor Company (4,700 employees), digital infrastructure provider Equinix (2,800 employees) and charter bus company Ram Transportation Services (2,200 employees.)

The Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) has earmarked almost $1 billion for transportation improvements and extensions within Southwest Cook County, in addition to tax incentives to attract more employers and residents to the area.
