I agree. West Bucktown does not exist. It is all Humboldt Park west of Western and south of Bloomingdale.

I'm a tiny woman and I've never ever had a problem at this establishment or walking there from Armitage and Kedzie. Actually, I once dropped my cellphone in front of the mechanic shop next door when I was fumbling to put my gloves on and one of the guys working there or just shoe gazing the auto work chased me half way down the block to return it.

Perhaps you look particularly dastardly?

Ha! Can't stretch it too far. It's hard for a neighborhood to jump the river!

It's a new neighborhood! Didn't you hear?

I gotta go get beer before the streets and sidewalks can't be traveled on.

I have enough food though thank god.

West Bucktown isn't as bad as SoLo, (South Loop), they couldn't even come up with something original, had to copy NYC.

Even if there was a West Bucktown, wouldn't it be primarily located in Logan Square and not Humboldt Park?

They already fixed that. Now people are starting to call South Loop, Sloop.
