Best Neighborhood Names
I have always liked some of the names of Chicago's neighborhoods like Back of The Yards or Pullman, maybe be not the best places to live but they have a nice name for a neighborhood. So what other neighborhood names do you like or dislike? doesn't every city have an Uptown not real original in my opinion.
My top 5 neighborhood names:
1. Back of the Yards
2. Bucktown
3. Wicker Park
4. Bridgeport
5. Ukrainian Village

The Bush
Schorsch Village

The name Canaryville amuses me. It sounds like the name of a prison.
