one of the three major sections of Chicago From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The West Side is one of the three major sections of the city of Chicago in Cook County, Illinois, along with the North Side and the South Side.[1] The West Side consists of communities that are of historical, cultural, and ideological importance to the history and development of Chicago. On the municipal flag of Chicago,[2] the West Side is represented by the central white stripe.
It is often seen by the media and residents as a largely poor, crime-ridden area of the city.[3]
