West Side commence à la limite Ouest de Downtown.
Quelques quartiers, en particulier East Garfield Park et Lawndale, connaissent des problèmes socio-économiques, incluant dégradation urbaine, chômage et criminalité. Les quartiers de West Side se trouvant les plus proches de Downtown, subissent depuis plusieurs années un processus de gentrification.

Le conservatoire du parc de Garfield comprend l'une des plus grandes collections d'usines tropicales de n'importe quelle ville des États-Unis. Les attractions culturelles dans West Side incluent la journée du festival portoricain de Humboldt Park, et le Musée National de l'art mexicain dans le quartier mexicain de Pilsen.
