    Set on Chicago’s northwest side, 60639 centers on Belmont Cragin and Hermosa, with tree-lined blocks of brick bungalows and two-flats and a warm, multigenerational community. Expect four true seasons—snowy winters and warm summers—and a proud cultural mix, with lively Mexican and Puerto Rican influences and historic notes like the Walt Disney birthplace on Tripp Avenue. It’s friendly for families and pets. Daily life clusters around The Brickyard shopping center (Target, Jewel-Osco, and more), Cermak Fresh Market and local mercados, and a casual dining scene of taquerias, panaderías, and classic Chicago eats. Parks anchor the area—Riis Park’s pool and playing fields, Kelvyn Park’s lawns, and Hermosa Park—plus neighborhood gyms and boxing studios. CTA buses along Fullerton, Diversey, and Belmont link to Blue Line and Metra connections, and the residential grid makes for easy walks and bike rides. According to Zillow’s recent market trends, the median rent sits around $1,800, with most listings ranging roughly from $1,300 to $2,400 in the past few months.
