Fuller Park

Fuller Park is a narrow neighborhood squeezed between the Dan Ryan and the rail embankments, one of the city's smallest by population and hardest hit by mid-century highway construction, which took a third of its land. What remains is a tight residential pocket with deep roots and Eden Place Nature Center, a reclaimed brownfield turned urban farm that tells you everything about the neighborhood's persistence.

The Red Line's 47th Street stop borders the neighborhood, putting the Loop about 15 minutes away. Housing costs are among the lowest in Chicago. Fuller Park suits renters and buyers who need maximum affordability with genuine rail access, and who want to be part of a small community rather than anonymous in a big one.

Fuller Park offers moderate transit access: a single car per household is usually sufficient. One car typically covers the gap that transit leaves.

With a Walk Score of 70, Fuller Park is "Very Walkable": most errands can be accomplished on foot.

At roughly $12,000/year for 1 car, transportation is a moderate line item in Fuller Park's true cost. The neighborhood is served by the Red line.
