We attended a buyer inspection at our recent Bucktown listing last week.  Bucktown is known for it's retail/ dining scene and newer construction housing. Visit on any day (particularly a weekend afternoon) and you will see residents bustling along both commercial and residential streets. Many of my younger relatives look at Bucktown/ Wicker Park as their desired entry neighborhoods to the city (I'm an old "far" North Sider... too boring for them) eschewing Lake View and Lincoln Park.
