South Austin, located between Garfield Park and Oak Park, is a residential and commercial Chicago neighborhood with a boulevard-lined streetscape and a legacy of early-20th-century architecture. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along the Madison Street corridor near Austin Boulevard, where corner taverns, longtime eateries, and storefront services keep the sidewalks active. Landmark brick two-flats and classic Chicago bungalows define many blocks, with larger courtyard buildings appearing closer to main arterials. Columbus Park’s prairie-style landscape and lagoons set a calm counterpoint to the busier retail strips. Cultural pillars such as the Austin Town Hall Park fieldhouse and the historic Laramie State Bank building anchor local identity. CTA Green Line stations at Austin and Central connect the area to the wider city.

The primary purpose of the RS districts is to accommodate the development of detached houses on individual lots. It is intended that RS zoning be applied in areas where the land-use pattern is characterized predominately by detached houses on individual lots or where such a land use pattern is desired in the future. The Zoning Ordinance includes three RS districts - RS3 - which are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements and floor area ratios.
