Evanston is a short subway ride north of Chicago. It is the perfect combination of college town and bustling small city. Downtown Evanston is just a block from Northwestern's lakefront campus, beaches, and cultural events. Restaurants representing culinary traditions from around the world are just steps from each other. Downtown Evanston is about 40min drive from O'Hare airport.
