Themed Bars and Family-Friendly Dining in Chicago’s Bucktown

If you’re looking for trendy, check out Bucktown. This nicely affordable community is just a smidge north of downtown. It’s outlined by the Chicago River-- turned green on St. Patrick’s Day--and I-94 (the Kennedy Expressway) goes straight through Bucktown. As you’ll find in most of the Chicago area, public transportation is ubiquitous, and there is abundant nightlife. Local grocery shoppers love places like Mariano’s, and unlike some other Chicago neighborhoods, there are at least three very nice public park areas. Chicago’s public transportation is epitomized by elevated rail or “The L,” and there is a trail called The Bloomindale that traverses almost three miles of an unused elevated train line. Renters love the area because of the great mix of charter and public schools.
