    On Chicago’s Northwest Side, 60630 spans Jefferson Park, Gladstone Park, Forest Glen, and North Mayfair—tree-lined bungalow blocks, mid-century flats, and quiet side streets anchored by the Jefferson Park Transit Center (CTA Blue Line, Metra) and quick I-90/94 access. Expect a true four-season climate—snowy winters, breezy springs, warm festival-filled summers—and a strong community vibe shaped by Polish and Eastern European heritage at the Copernicus Center, plus neighborhood theaters and street festivals. Daily life is convenient: Mariano’s and ALDI for groceries, cafés and delis along Milwaukee, Lawrence, and Elston (think Gale Street Inn and classic bakeries), local gyms and yoga studios, and abundant green space at Jefferson Memorial and Gompers Parks, with trail connections into LaBagh and Forest Glen Woods for biking and easy dog walks. It’s pet-friendly and notably commuter friendly. Zillow market trends in recent months show a median asking rent around $2,000, with most listings roughly $1,500–$2,600 depending on size and finish.
