You won't find very many of those. :P I can give you a decent list, though.<BR/><BR/>Oak Park (um, sometimes, if you're lucky)<BR/>some areas of West Town (Ukranian Village, the more gentrified areas of Humbolt Park...sometimes you can find affordable places in Wicker Park and Bucktown, but those are becoming increasingly scarce)<BR/>Logan Square (only if you're on Logan Blvd, though)<BR/>Lakeview<BR/>Portage Park<BR/><BR/>There are some other areas that will be much more gentrified, possibly as soon as next summer (like the Pilsen/Little Village area), and I'm predicting that Uptown, which is crack-nest central, will be in the next few years. You can also find really cheap lofts in the South Loop, which is crazy considering the proximity to basically everything.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
