The City of Chicago is home to 291 school buildings that are actively in use, but under capacity by more than 160,000 students.

That's according to an analysis of Chicago Public Schools' enrollment data by Chicago City Wire.

The analysis comes as city officials search homes for some 20,000 illegal aliens they invited to move to the city, and who are currently sleeping on streets, in tents and in police station lobbies.

The empty buildings include 43 high schools built for 62,100 students, but that have just 19,215 enrolled-- excess capacity of 42,885.

Another 247 Chicago Public middle and elementary schools have a collective capacity of 202,920, but just 87,942 active students, with room for 114,978.

Of the schools, 37 are on the West Side, with a capacity of 19,914, and 46 are on the North Side, with room for 24,048 students.

The South Side is home to 162 of the 291 schools, with total excess capacity of 95,064, the analysis showed.

Humboldt Park (room for 6,139), Little Village (6,092), Englewood (4,833), Roseland/Pullman (4,497), Auburn Gresham (4,282) and Logan Square (4,230) have the most excess capacity.

5,333 empty classrooms

Assuming each classroom is built to hold 30 students, these CPS schools have some 5,333 empty classrooms available to house homeless illegal aliens, in buildings that are already being heated and have functioning bathrooms and even locker rooms with showers.

These capacity estimates are likely conservative.

CPS has lowered the official building capacities of its schools considerably over the years, suggesting the buildings could hold even more illegal aliens, if used.

Austin High School, at 231 N. Pine on the city's far west side, currently has 167 students in a building CPS says can hold 1,884.

But that building had 6,815 students enrolled in 1931, according to CPS records.

Fenger High School, at 11220 S. Wallace Street in Roseland on the far south side, currently has 230 students in a building CPS says can hold 1,428. 

Fenger peaked at more than 5,300 students enrolled in the 1970s.

Other CPS High Schools with capacities greatly-reduced from their high enrollments include Bronzeville H.S., formerly DuSable (145 current students / 2,292 official capacity / 4,034 high enrollment), Bogan H.S. (641 / 1,440 / 2,375), Harlan H.S. (259 / 1,344 / 3,500) and Phillips H.S. (457 / 1,740 / 3,602).

Per Illinois State Law, CPS cannot close any schools until Jan. 15, 2025.

The moratorium was originally agreed to by Mayor Rahm Emanuel.

Last month, CPS leaders announced they needed "$14.4 billion" to renovate all 522 of its public school buildings, including the 291 empty ones.

CPS built 230 new schools between 1995 and 2015.
