Ty - if he's around toady sometime regarding the Chicago list.

this is the list of neighborhoods from brother's chicago friend. all parentheticals are hers

Bucktown
Lincoln Park
Lakeview
Wicker Park (not all of it though)
River North (awesome but expensive)
Gold Coast (crazy expensive but amazing)
maybe east parts of Ukranian Village


Lincoln Park, River North and the Gold Coast are all pretty expensive and short on parking.

Bucktown is the hip neighborhood. and Wicker Park was, but has gentrified considerably (meaning it's on the way to the first three, but not there yet).

Lakeview is near Wrigley Field. not bad, but not the safest either, and that sort of depends on where you are in the neigborhood.

Lincoln Square is a nice, older neighborhood that's also gentrifying, also on the yuppie side. Nice restaurants, and small boutiques.

There are a lot of nice neighborhods beyond these, it pretty much depends on what your brother is looking for.
