Q. How long have you lived in Old Town?
A. About 18 months.
Q. What would you say is the best part of Old Town?
A. It's centrally located for where I go: Downtown, Lincoln Par, Wicker Park, Wrigleyville.
Q. What's the worst part about Old Town?

Q. How would you describe the typical Old Town resident?
A.
Around 30 years old, professional without kids. Yuppy central. Upper
20s ,early 30s interested in going out at night. I would say older than
Lincoln Park. The place a lot of people would live before going out in
the suburbs to raise a family.
Q. Is crime something you even think about in this neighborhood?
A.
Yeah, just because you're so close to the less affluent area. Some of
the nice places in Old Town didn't used to be nice places too long ago.
There is a definite divide on the boundaries, especially to the south.
