  1. I am somewhat familiar with the neighborhoods in Chicago on this list, though I live in neither. I notice the criteria for Hipsterhood don’t include crime or workforce participation rates for residents; or, getting deeper into the weeds, percentage of residents getting some kind of government aid in money or in kind.
