What area has the best looking Bungalows??
I know my area (Galewood) has some very nice/ well kept bungalows, and I was driving through Berwyn like I've done on many occasions on East ave. and finally noticed that Berwyn has some nice Bungalows as well. Ashburn also has some nice Bungalows too....

Berwyn has some of the most unique Chicago bungalows. Ravenswood Manor has the most posh ones I've seen, however.

Many of those neighborhoods are not really flush with actual "bungalows". "Bungalow" does not equal "single family house", but is a distinct architectural style.

^ Where did he say the neighborhood had to be majority Bungalow? ^
Of course there are very nice bungalows in the neighborhoods I mentioned. I know because I have been to every one of them thousands of times. I have lived in a few of those neighborhoods as well.

What, so there are like two bungalows in Sauganash? I'd say more than one of the neighborhoods you have listed have zero. Prove me wrong. If you can find more than ten bungalows in each of those neighborhoods, I'll be shocked. Not that anyone has time for this...

You really do not want to wager on that.

Probably not, but it would be a hell of a lot of work for you to find ten bungalows in some of those neighborhoods.

Oak Park has quite a few jumbo bungalows, and many of them are in pristine condition.
