Many. Back at the turn of the century many Europeans immigrated to Chicago. Mostly Italians and Irish at the time. But not to bore you and to speed foward, Chicago has every ethnic nationality you can think of. In the last 20 years the Polish, Russian, Lithuanian, Mexican and Arab populations have grown the most.

The Polish population in Chicago is only exceeded by one other city in the world that being Warsaw, Poland. There are blocks on Archer Avenue where the signs are in Polish, Spanish and Vietnamese all on the same block. On the North side, it's English, Spanish, Arabic and Korean.
