  • Queen of the Rosary and St. Julian Eymard Parish; ARCHDIOCESE of CHICAGO
    ARCHDIOCESE OF CHICAGO Office of the Archbishop 835 North Rush Street Chicago, IL 60611-2030 312.534.8230 archchicago.org Prot. N. 2020 RMC-15 DECREE IN THE NAME OF GOD. AMEN. "Likewise, parishes which are too small should be united insofar as the situation demands it and circumstances permit." St. Paul Vi, Apostolic Letter motu proprio, Ecclesiae Sanctae, n. 21,(1), August 6, 1966 Changing demographics have affected the size and wealth of the Archdiocese of Chicago and the vitality of her parishes. This is particularly true in the City of Chicago itself, where the total population has decreased by nearly 20% since 1970, from 3,366,957 to an estimated 2,705,994 in 2018. The archdiocese has many vacant, old, and underused parochial buildings and fewer priests to pastor our faith communities. According to the US Census Bureau, the Archdiocese of Chicago had an estimated total population of 5,881,250 in 2018. The 2018 Anniyar/o Pontifico indicates our archdiocese had 345 parishes serving a Catholic population of 2,512,000: an average of 7,281 Catholics per parish. According to the same source, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles had a total population of 11,519,517, with 287 parishes for a Catholic population of 4,362,000: an average 15,199 Catholics per parish. For the Archdiocese of New York, the figures are 2,656,987 Catholics in 294 parishes: an average 9,037 Catholics per parish. A good number of our parishes were founded in the first half of the last century or earlier.

Meanwhile, regional conditions, such as the development of suburban immigrant gateway communities and increases in the cost of business ownership, complicate local economic development efforts in urban ethnic districts. This research is presented as a mixed–methods case study of Devon Avenue in Chicago, IL, home to a significant concentration of South Asian–owned immigrant businesses. Challenges and pressures facing businesses are examined through merchant surveys and interviews. Observations reinforce the notion that cultural competency and strong grassroots leadership is vital for economic development planning so that “capitalizing” on an ethnic heritage does not become a tool for commodification or commercial gentrification. Agencies must also be mindful of the impacts associated with suburbanization of immigrant communities and take a long-term, regional approach to planning in ethnic commercial corridors. Keywords commercial corridors, ethnic corridors, immigrant-owned businesses, commercial gentrification Local governments and tourism agencies seek to enhance socioeconomic conditions, such as the development of new and showcase local neighborhoods and retail corridors for suburban immigrant gateway communities (Singer, economic development purposes (Ashutosh, 2008; Hardwick, & Brettell, 2008) and increases in the cost of busi- Loukaitou-Sideris, 2012).
