Parque Chas at a glance

Parque Chas is curving streets of small houses and gardens that confuse taxi drivers — a storybook pocket inside a straight-grid city. It covers 1.39 km² in the city's west, Comuna 15, with 32,505 residents at the 2022 census (INDEC reports Agronomía and Parque Chas jointly, so the count and the density cover both) — about 9,200 people per km², less dense than the median barrio (14,700).

Who it's for

Quiet lovers who still want to be near Villa Urquiza, Agronomia, and Chacarita.

The catch

Small supply, limited commerce, and very residential evenings.

Anchors

The places that define Parque Chas · our read
  • LandmarkThe circular street plan

    A 1925 garden-city layout of concentric and curving streets; taxi drivers get lost, residents like it that way.

  • PlazaPlaza Éxodo Jujeño

    The barrio's one plaza at the center of the circles.

  • StreetAvenida Triunvirato

    The edge with the shops and the B line's end at Juan Manuel de Rosas; inside the circles there is almost no commerce.

median barrio

The overall read is an even weighting of the 12 marks we have for this barrio — a starting point, not a verdict. Of our six lenses it ranks highest under “With kids”. Cost value stands on the asking sale price per m², as no rent is quoted here. The tick is the median of the 48 barrios. Eight marks are computed from public data and four are our read; what goes into each is on how we score.

Reported robbery & theft

reported crimes · 2025

Combined figures for Agronomía + Parque Chas: the census reports their population together, so crime and park totals are pooled too.

18.6 reported robberies and thefts per 1,000 residents — well below the city rate of 32.2.

227 robberies (with violence or threat) and 379 thefts were reported in Agronomía + Parque Chas in 2025, against 32,505 residents in private dwellings at the 2022 census. Reporting rates, visitors, population changes since the census and differences between blocks limit the comparison. These counts do not measure all crime or predict personal safety.

Thinking about Parque Chas?

A barrio is half the decision. The other half is the lease — the guarantee, the up-front cash, the contract terms — and that part we walk through with you.
