## What is Which Hood?

Which Hood instantly tells you which Chicago neighborhood you're standing in.

Open the app, and within seconds you'll see your neighborhood name, community area, and location on a live map — no searching, no scrolling, no typing. Just open and know.

INSIDE CHICAGO
See your colloquial neighborhood (like Wrigleyville, Wicker Park, or Streeterville) along with the official community area used by the city since the 1920s. The map highlights your current neighborhood boundary and shows neighboring areas around you.

IN THE SUBURBS
Outside Chicago but still in the metro? Which Hood identifies your suburb, shows your county and state, and tells you how far you are from State & Madison — the origin of Chicago's famous street grid. The Chicago city boundary is displayed on the map so you can see exactly where the city begins.

Covers all 98 colloquial neighborhoods, 77 official community areas, and the entire 13-county Chicago-Naperville-Elgin metropolitan area across Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin.

KEY FEATURES
- Instant neighborhood identification — no taps required
- Live map with highlighted neighborhood boundaries
- Neighboring areas shown with labeled outlines
- Suburb detection across the full Chicagoland MSA
- Distance from State & Madison in the suburbs
- GPS accuracy warnings when signal is weak
- Dark mode support
- 100% on-device — your location never leaves your phone

All boundary data is bundled in the app. No internet connection needed for neighborhood lookups.
