Wicker Park

Perfect for
Living in Wicker Park
Wicker Park has that cool-but-unbothered energy that makes it one of the most loved neighborhoods on the northwest side. It’s known for its artsy vibe, a solid mix of bars, vintage shops, local restaurants, and a ton of small businesses to wander through. You’ll mostly find walk-ups and older buildings here, with the occasional loft or renovated unit that still keeps the character. Pricing varies—some places can be surprisingly affordable, while others go for more depending on size, location, and updates. It’s also super walkable, has easy access to the Blue Line, and you’re not far from the 606 Trail for biking, running, or just existing in nature for a bit. Wicker Park also comes alive in the summer with street festivals like Do Division and Wicker Park Fest, and the farmers market on Sundays is one of the best.
