Chicago's density. (Lincoln, Bridgeport, Humboldt: neighborhoods, housing, residential)

[ChiCity2010]

is Chicago dense?

[Nafster]

Most areas yes, some areas no.

The North Side is definitely much denser than the South Side.

[Alacran]

As a whole... no.
In parts, yes.

[mas23]

3rd densest in the country. But, there are a plethora of areas that could use more density.

What neighborhood is the most dense?

[Nafster]

I believe Edgewater.

In terms of density, Chicago's more dense than all but two cities, so that's quite an accomplishment.

Some people's heads are dense, the rest of the people arent so dense.

Along the lake North from the South Loop, which includes Gold Coast, Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Uptown, Edgewater, and Rogers Park. In a tier below that, there are neighborhoods on the near Southwest (Pilsen, Bridgeport) and Northwest (West Town, Wicker Park, Humboldt Park, Logan Square).

It's hard to tell exactly, because the numbers that exist count whole community groups, which may include large non-residential industrial districts that aren't a part of the neighborhood proper. It's hard to tell by eye too, because a few skyscrapers built for single people will often have less population than a few blocks of overcrowded low-rise buildings housing families.
