Cicero, IL Real Estate

Cicero is an incorporated town in Cook County, Illinois, United States. The population was 85,616 at the 2000 census. A 2003 Census estimate showed the population dipped to 83,029. Cicero is named for the town of Cicero, New York, which in turn was named for Marcus Tullius Cicero, the Roman orator.

Originally, Cicero occupied six times its current territory. Weak political leadership and town services resulted in towns such as Oak Park, Illinois and Berwyn, Illinois voting to split off from Cicero, and other portions such as Austin were annexed into the city of Chicago [1]

Al Capone built his criminal empire in Chicago before moving to Cicero to escape the reach of Chicago police. The town features in The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui, a play by Bertolt Brecht which compares the Chicago gangsters and the rise to power of Adolf Hitler.

The 1980s and 1990s saw a heavy influx of Hispanic (mostly Mexican and Central American ) residents to Cicero, displacing most other ethnicities. Once considered mainly a Czech or Bohemian town on 22nd Street (now Cermak Road ), most of the European-style restaurants and shops have been replaced by Spanish-titled businesses. Cicero most recently is seeing a new influx of residents, mostly Puerto Rican and Polish American. Cicero also has seen a revival in its commercial sector, with many brand-new minimalls and large retail stores. New condominiums are also being built in Cicero, ranging in price from $150,000 to $300,000.
