Not far outside of the corporate skyscrapers and tourist attractions of the The Loop, the Wicker Park neighborhood serves up an exciting and distinctly Chicago atmosphere. A thriving artistic community operates here, and both local and national touring acts regularly perform on the neighborhood’s many stages. Wicker Park is home to fun-loving, fast paced residents as well as historic home lovers who prefer tree-shaded strolls over stage lights.
Wicker Park is also home to many of Chicago’s most in-demand restaurants, drawing eager foodies from all across the city. Most of these attractions are clustered together around Milwaukee Avenue, with the rest of the neighborhood largely taken up by historic homes and apartment buildings along tree-lined streets. Several schools in Wicker Park make it easy for local students to walk to class quickly and safely. With multiple hospitals in the immediate area, it’s also an excellent location for healthcare professionals who want to live near their work. While rent prices are certainly not cheap, you’ll find many more affordable apartments and houses here than in areas closer to the lake.
