West Loop

Your aversion to chain food can only be matched by your love of hard to find dog breeds. Food is your jam and your neighborhood’s rehabbed warehouses and meat packaging facilities make it the perfect spot for new and upcoming restaurateurs. Aside from the amazing food, you’ve got a community full of young families, many with children, who add to the neighborhood feel of this section. Assuming they don’t turn the Harpo complex into another half developed condominium, and if you can ignore the sound of meat trucks at 4 a.m., the West Loop is pretty much perfect.

Bucktown/Wicker Park

You’re an artist (even if you don’t actually create art yourself) with an idealistic view of the world. The thought of setting up home in an abandoned sausage factory turned studio apartment complex seems adventurous and novel. You need a neighborhood of like-minded hippies *AHEM* hipsters *AHEM* wannabe hipsters with whom to share ideas and attend “How to Look Dirty after a Shower” classes. Oh, and you’re also surrounded by the city’s best shopping and lounge experiences. Hello, Una Mae's, Goorin Bros, Dove, Big Star, and Violet Hour! (image: Kari Herrera of Chicagoings)
