Healy is a station on Metra's Milwaukee District/North in the Hermosa community area of Chicago, Illinois. The station is 6.4 miles (10.3 km) away from Union Station, the southern terminus of the line.[1] In Metra's zone-based fare system, Healy is in zone B.

Street-side parking is only available on the north side of West Fullerton Avenue just west of where it runs beneath the tracks. A freight spur exists north of the station.

On May 8, 2017, Metra broke ground on a major renovation of Healy station, including new platforms, heated shelters, improved access for the disabled, and LED lighting. The makeover will cost $7.3 million and is expected to increase ridership given the station's close proximity to the 606 Trail.[2]
