Nightlife in Lincoln Park and Wrigleyville are almost indistinguishable. Lincoln Park night life seems to have both a slightly younger crowd than Wrigleyville (large university campus right in the middle of the neighborhood) and a slightly older crowd (lots of expensive homes that generally only older folks can afford) than Wrigleyville. Wrigleyville seems to split the difference with a late 20s/early 30s crowd. Rush and Division is an older crowd than both, generally mid-30s to early 40s crowd. Rush/Division is the party zone for those with serious money and want to show it off, along with those who aspire to have serious money and are willing to shell out for one evening to get a taste of "the good life."

Division is often a tourist trap. Yes on Rush there are some really high end spots. It's been called the viagra triangle because of the mid life men picking up on gold digging young women.

Wrigleyville and Lincoln Park are virtually the same except for the age difference. Of course there is going to be run off of the same crowd because they border each other, sort of. Wrigleyville is actually a subset of the Lakeview area which borders Lincoln Park.

Well if you are looking to meet new people its really annoying trying to have a conversation with someone in a club.

If you just want to drink and dance the night away and take a girl home than a club is a good idea.

Otherwise you might reconsider the whole club thing.
Of course my definition of a club may different than yours
