The Gold Coast
Politics Culture Leisure Business Entertainment Housing Social Services

Bound by Clark Street, North Avenue, Lake Michigan, Rush Street, and Oak Street and deemed Chicago's wealthiest neighborhood, The Gold Coast is home to some of the city's most affluent residents housed in landmark mansions, brownstones, and highrises. However, such distinguished beauty comes with a hefty pricetag, as the average price for a single family home hovers just above the $1 million mark.

Steps away from the "Magnificent Mile" of Michigan Avenue, residents of the Gold Coast area need not look far for a shopping Mecca to fulfill their habits of consumption.

Public transportation is ample, as all possible forms of transportation consider downtown and immediate surrounding areas-- such as the Gold Coast-their hub.
