Welcome To

Ukranian Village

A harmonious blend of diversity and residential peace.


Welcome to Ukranian Village

Located near the West Side of Chicago, Ukrainian Village is a small yet vibrant community that originally began as farmland. The area is a mix of low-key, peaceful residential areas with an urban lifestyle.
 
Just 15 minutes from the heart of Downtown Chicago, Ukrainian Village is home to Chicago’s vast Ukrainian population. First settled by mostly German immigrants, in the late 19th century, new waves of immigration shifted the demographics to include mostly Slavic residents. Modern Ukrainian Village places of significance to the Chicago Ukrainian community include the Ukrainian National Museum, the Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art, and three gorgeous Ukrainian churches.
 
The residential architecture of the area is filled with alluring homes that diverge from the stereotypical, invariant structures you might find in other neighborhoods. A blend of late 19th and early 20th-century historic homes—influenced deeply by European roots—line its charming streets and create an altogether beautiful neighborhood.
