 Bucktown Real Estate: condos, lofts, homes for sale in Chicago
Bucktown, just to the near northwest side of Chicago, between North and Fullerton Avenues and from the Kennedy Expressway west to Western Avenue, the neighborhood formerly considered an artists’ haven is giving way to more yuppie types who appreciate the notion of loft-style living, as well as rehabbed walk-ups, restored warehouses, and converted three flats.
However, on account of the rising rates, those who opt to relocate to Bucktown need to consider their financial situation, though in the past the neighborhood was more suitable to starving artists.
Though Bucktown has been predominately populated by artisans, more and more young people continue to flock to the area on account of its cultural atmosphere, bohemian-like retail shopping district and eclectic mix of dining establishments and night clubs.
