LIFE IN LITTLE ITALY / UNIVERSITY VILALGE
Little Italy, also called University Village, is a neighborhood on the Near West Side of Chicago. It lies between the University of Illinois at Chicago campus and the Illinois Medical District. The community was once predominantly Italian immigrants but is now made up of diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds as a result of immigration, urban renewal, gentrification and the growth of the resident student and faculty population of the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC).
