Finding the Best Location to Live for a Busy Chicago Digital Marketer
Moving into a city like Chicago as a digital marketer can be a lot to take in. So many different neighborhoods and cultures mixed together and you’ve got to figure out the color coded train system on top of that. Don’t even get us started on the food. Well how about we make your job a little easier with a comprehensive list of what each neighborhood offers and what might get you to turn away? Check out some of the most popular locations below:
Bucktown
First up is the trendy Bucktown area a couple miles northwest of the loop. The digital marketing industry can be pretty demanding on your mind set and it’s good to be able to get away from all the stress with some nice yoga and cafés which won’t be too hard to find at all in this relaxation-driven area. The crowd is a tad on the younger side but small families can find a welcome spot too. Take a break from your digital screens and enjoy a walk down Damen Avenue, which has about everything you would need in stores, speciality shops and great food. Not to mention the newly renovated 1-Hour Tees, walk in and get a shirt with your digital marketing agencies name on it so you can promote on-the-go. If you’re coming from a small town or suburb this would be a nice transition for you.
Wicker Park
Wicker Park has made itself the most hipster-friendly neighborhood in Chicago. Filled with small local artisan shops and restaurants that aren’t afraid to boast their “gluten-free” options, Wicker Park can be sure to have you finding your inner need to stand out from the rest, which is great when you have hit a creative rut in your work. Speaking of work, if you really want to learn how to market towards a younger crowd, this is a great place to people watch. Grab a taco from the always popular Big Star or visit the secret (but not really) speakeasy cocktail bar known as The Violet Hour.
Logan Square
Logan Square is a smaller and less pricey location when compared to Bucktown and Wicker Park, but offers unique local amenities in a tighter package. Traveling back from work and home will take a little longer than usual if your digital marketing agency is in the loop but the tree filled roads will be a nice escape from all the taller buildings and loud streets found downtown. For those who are looking for a little more excitement in their nightlife, Rosa’s Lounge, offers the perfect balance of live blues and jazz music. Lula Cafe is a great spot for brunch lovers as well just make sure to get there early. If you’re planning on sharing a space with a roommate or partner, then Logan Square could be better suited for you. The low amount of street noise will work for those planning on taking some work home.
Ukrainian Village
Ukrainian Village is really on the rise to becoming one of the most sought after 
neighborhoods in Chicago’s West Town. It is the closest location to the loop when compared to the neighborhoods listed above, so don’t expect to get lost in your commute to work. Recently it has been undergoing many constructional projects but don’t let that stop you from living a walk away from Yuzu Sushi and Robata Grill which offers some of the best sushi in the city. If you’re more of a sweet eater than Hoosier Mama Pie Company will become your favorite after work spot. Of course, as the name states, the Ukrainian culture is apparent, but that only means you are welcome to sample great bakeries and restaurants. Ukranian Village is also the closest to Chicago’s United Center so if you’re the type that checks their phone for all the sports updates while working at the digital marketing office this could be a convenient spot for you.
If you’re thinking about moving into any of these neighborhoods, you should check out DB Develops that has listings available in each of those awesome spots. There’s even a great innovative filter system for those who know exactly what they are looking for.
