We all know that Chicago residents are never short on things to do, or beautiful architecture and scenic city and lake views to see. With <\/span>77 neighborhoods<\/span><\/a>, there are endless sights to see around every corner. One of the best parts about living in a vibrant \u201csmall\u201d big city is that everything you need is nearby<\/span>\u2014 from nightlife, to grocery stores, to some of the country\u2019s best <\/span>restaurants<\/span><\/a>.<\/span> Here are a few of my favorite Chicago neighborhoods that take the cake for awesome scenery, convenience, and accessibility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

West Loop<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a self-proclaimed foodie, then Chicago\u2019s <\/span>West Loop<\/span><\/a> neighborhood is a dream come true. It is home to Restaurant Row, Fulton Market District, and many Michelin-star restaurants<\/span>\u2014 all within close proximity to the many <\/span>residences<\/span><\/a> in the neighborhood. After just a 10 minute stroll, you\u2019ll pass renowned restaurants like BomboBar, Au Cheval, Girl and the Goat, Nobu and so many more.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Wicker Park<\/strong><\/p>\n

When you think of <\/span>Wicker Park<\/span><\/a>, some words that come to mind may be hip, trendy, eclectic, and everything in between. This <\/span>neighborhood<\/span><\/a> is paradise if you don\u2019t want to get in a car or bus to go to your favorite bar, <\/span>restaurant<\/span><\/a>, theater, or cafe. You can find all of these and more around almost every corner of Wicker Park! If you\u2019re looking to stray away from the bustling streets, you can walk or ride along the 606, a former railway that has been transformed into a beautiful trail full of public art and greenery. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Lincoln Park<\/strong><\/p>\n

Scenic may not be enough to describe this upbeat, nature-filled neighborhood of Chicago. I consider <\/span>Lincoln Park<\/span><\/a> as a top-notch maneuverable neighborhood because it\u2019s home to an abundance of lakefront trails, lush parks, the Nature Boardwalk, Lincoln Park Zoo, beautiful historic homes, and tons of shopping. <\/span>Living<\/span><\/a> or staying in Lincoln Park means that whether you want to immerse yourself in <\/span>nature<\/span><\/a>, see stunning views of the lake, attend a concert or hit up your favorite shops, they\u2019re all a short distance away.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

River North<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nightowls, rejoice! <\/span>River North<\/span><\/a> has all the stops for fun and exciting nightlife. A night out in this lively Chicago neighborhood will allow you to ditch the taxi between bars like Three Dots and a Dash, TAO, The Bassment, and more. During the day, you can take a scenic stroll along the Riverwalk, discover some of Chicago\u2019s most iconic architecture, or explore the many interesting art and design galleries.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

West Town<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for more of a laid-back scene, Chicago\u2019s <\/span>West Town<\/span><\/a> neighborhood has you covered. West Town is the best of both worlds<\/span>\u2014 an easy promenade down more tranquil streets with museums and antique shops, or take the more boisterous route with fun taprooms and bars. What makes West Town great is the ample amount of art and culture to see while heading past almost any block; they even host the West Town Art Walk festival every year!
