- Beverly Hills (or Beverly) is one of the 77 official community areas of Chicago, Illinois, located on the southwestern edge of the city. It consists of a variety of sizes of homes, some upscale and built on large lots in relation to most of Chicago. Beverly was initially a suburb perched atop a ridge later annexed by the city. Beverly has access (by public transport or car) to all of the Chicago financial markets and attractions, yet retains itself as a peaceful, quiet community. Beverly is one of the top five largest historic districts in any major city in the USA, and the homes there reflect this historic distinction. Beverly has consistently ranked as the safest neighborhood in Chicago. Beverly also has the 3rd highest median household income in Chicago. Beverly is notable as one of the few areas within Chicago containing hills. Prior to settlement, it was known as Blue Island, a name now used by a suburb a few miles to the south. The blue color has been variously attributed to atmospheric scattering or to blue flowers growing on the ridge. It is home to a large Irish-American community and many Irish establishments. Beverly is the home of the South Side Irish Parade, which is held on the Sunday prior to St. Patrick's Day, the largest neighborhood parade of any type in the country. The neighborhood is home to more Irish-style pubs than any other in Chicago. The Beverly Arts Center is the location for the Chicago Irish Film Festival. There is a replica of a castle from Ireland in Beverly, which was constructed in the late 19th century when an American businessman, Robert Givens, was trying to convince his Irish fiancee to move to the United States, and so had a duplicate of her family castle built with stone from the same quarry. The "Givens Castle" at 10244 S. Longwood Drive, has been a home, an all-girls college, and is now a Unitarian church and pre-school. The Beverly Branch Library has the largest Irish heritage collection in Chicago. The Rotary Club was formed in Beverly at the home of Paul P. Harris on Longwood Drive, and today the house is owned by that organization. Beverly has several of Chicago's top public elementary schools: Kellogg, Clissold, Barnard, and Sutherland. The neighborhood public high school is Morgan Park HS. Many students leave the neighborhood to attend Whitney M. Young Magnet HS and Walter Payton College Prep. Beverly has five Catholic parishes: St. Barnabas, Christ the King, St. Walter, St. Cajetan, and St. John Fisher. Beverly also is a main drawing ground for many of the area's all-boys schools; all-girls schools; and co-educational Catholic high schools.
