Today, the area has become a popular place to settle down and raise a family—libraries, parks and other family-friendly amenities are never more than a few blocks away. Encompassing Rosecoe Village and bordering Lakeview, North Center is also the home to music venues, dive bars and plenty of other places to spend an evening.
