Hyde Park

Founded in 1891, Hyde Park was intended as an aristocratic suburb, away from the hustle of the rising city. Now a mix of artistic freewheelers, tech-sector families, and students escaping dorm life call its mix of tree-lined avenues, independent businesses, and historic housing home. Quiet, leafy, pedestrian-friendly, and (mostly) McMansion-free.
