Welcome To Evanston
Evanston was founded nearly 140 years ago in 1851, the same year that Northwestern University first opened its doors. Named after the university President, Dr. John Evans, the city and the college have progressed together ever since. The university impacts the community both socially and economically. The student population and faculty stimulate the local economy and university activities, such as music and drama department productions, enrich the city culturally. The housing in Evanston is a mix of large older homes and younger more modest homes, with a sprinkling of condos here and there. For shopping, Evanston offers over 200 shops scattered throughout the community.
