Image Not Available Official delineations of Chicago Community Areas were implemented for the 1930 Census as well as to have a method of statistically tracking specific areas of the city. "Community Areas" were defined taking into account an area's settlement, growth, and history of the population; economic factors such as number of businesses and their dispersement; as well as natural and artificial landmarks like the Chicago River, train lines, and parks.

Originally comprised of 75 Chicago Community Areas, the annexation of the land for O'Hare International Airport required a 76th Community Area, O'Hare Community Area, to be added in 1960; and socio-economic conditions called for the splitting of Uptown Community Area in 1980 giving rise to Edgewater Community Area to the North.
