Evanston is a city in Cook County, 12 miles north of downtown Chicago, bordered by Chicago to the south, Skokie to the west, and Wilmette to the north. It has a population of about 78,500.

Evanston is home to the highly ranked Northwestern University, founded before the city's incorporation in 1855, and is one of the world's leading research universities. Known for its socially liberal politics and ethnically diverse population, Evanston nears 90% support for Democratic presidential candidates and became one of the first cities to institute a reparations program, which offers housing subsidies for Black residents (or descendants of Black residents) who faced housing discrimination prior to 1960.
