Honestly, anywhere in the city you'll be fine. Stay away from the far northwest or southwest, bc that's where all the cops live. And people tend to forget that Chicago was essentially the birthplace of the American labor movement. Look up the Haymarket affair. Currently 6 of our 50 Alderpeople are DSA members, and PSL is strong here, too. Affordable, but cool neighborhoods are Old Irving Park and Avondale, less affordable, but still cool are Logan Square, Andersonville and Ravenswood and if you'd prefer the south side, Hyde Park or Kenwood, though the Obama complex will be in Kenwood, so maybe less cool in the fututre. The suburbs I generally wouldn't recommend, with the exceptions of Oak Park and Evanston.
