Between Division Street and Damen, Ashland and Grand avenues in the West Town community area, you’ll find the East Village neighborhood. West Town’s “walk score” of 88 owes a lot to the amenities of East Village, which has been a high-density area throughout its history. Coffee shops and restaurants are scattered mostly along Grand Avenue and Division Street, including Uncle Mike’s Place, a neighborhood restaurant which rates highly with 54 reviews on Yelp. For those who work downtown, living in East Village offers a short commute by car, bus, rail or bike.
