Stop that. Just because you can tolerate the south Bronx doesn't mean everyone wants to live in joints like that.

Agreed on Uptown. But I lived in the vicinity almost a decade ago, so I can't speak to any shifts in things that have occurred since. I know my old part of Edgewater is vastly different now than then.

The OP said "starving artists", not "babbling nutcases" or "aggressive panhandlers".

There's beauty in the solace of not giving a damn.

Be serious or get lost. Personally, I prefer the latter.
OP, don't listen to this punk. These are the Homewoods and Wilkinsburgs of Chicago. Only worse.
I'm kind of liking the idea of Uptown for you as well, north of Lawrence anyway. Otherwise, Ukranian Village or the east end of Humboldt Park.

Uptown doesn't strike me as an artsy area.  I could be wrong and just haven't looked around enough, though.
