Originally a giant barnyard (where 19th-Century farmers raised their "bucks"), Bucktown Chicago morphed into a gritty, industrial outpost before artists and others moved in to take advantage of the low apartment rent. Gentrification soon followed. So naturally, this led to a boom with many new apartments for rent. Today, Bucktown apartments are in high demand; Bucktown has become a popular choice for hip Chicagoans.
Parks in Bucktown include Ehrler Park, Churchill Park, Holstein Park, Senior Citizens memorial Playlot Park, and the Bloomingdale Trail (aka 606 Trail).
Bucktown is definitely a Chicago neighborhood where there is always something to do or someplace to eat. Bucktown is rich with young professionals, artists, and families with kids. Progressive fashion boutiques, national retailers, sushi restaurants, and fancy ice cream parlors muscled their way into the mix, alongside the offbeat retailers, record stores, bike shops, bars, nightclubs, and quirky eateries.

The CTA Blue line 'L' train conveniently stops less than a block away, and the commute into the Chicago Loop is speedy.
