UPTOWN
About Uptown
Chicago's Uptown neighborhood, located about six miles north of
the Loop, is rich in culture and has seen significant ups and downs
through history. For more than a century Uptown has been a popular
entertainment district, playing a significant role in the Jazz Age,
the silent film era, the swing era and the big band era, all riding
on the coattails of the Gilded Age. The Margate Park, Buena Park,
Sheridan Park and Little Vietnam neighborhoods all make up Uptown's
large community area, although it was twice the size before
Edgewater split off to become distinctly its own. There's a
steadily growing Asian population in the area and non-Hispanic
whites make up less than half of the population.
