About Wicker Park

Wicker Park centers on the six-corners intersection at Milwaukee, North, and Damen, and it's the most walkable roommate market on the north-west side. Housing is 1890s greystones and three-flats split into two- and three-bedroom units, plus newer condo conversions along Milwaukee with in-unit laundry.

Getting to work from Wicker Park

The Blue Line at Damen or Division reaches the Loop in about 15 minutes and O'Hare in 30, which makes this a favorite for people who travel for work. The 56 Milwaukee and 72 North buses fill the gaps, and the 606 trail runs east-west for bike commuters.

Who shares apartments here

Late-20s creatives, marketing and tech workers, restaurant industry staff, and musicians — plus a wave of higher earners who arrived in the last decade and pushed rents up.

The trade-off

It's more expensive than Logan Square for the same square footage, and the bar blocks around Division are loud on weekends. Move a few streets toward Bucktown for quiet at similar rent.
