The place I like to visit the most of all of Chicago is "Belmont Avenue" located on the north side of Chicago.
The nickname for this area is Boystown. Boystown has a very big gay community. I love to be apart of the gay community. What i find unique in Boystown are the people and the cool places you can go.
There are so many people that have different types of styles. I love how they can express it without people caring. Belmont gives me inspiration for my creative side. Many people stand out and have very different looks and many people disagree with it. Since i fell in love with this place all i began to hear people say is
"Your Weird'', my first reaction will be,"Well define what is normal". In Boystown, they seem to be like everyone else maybe even a little happier.

One thing you might or might not know is that Boystown Chicago was the first recognized "Gay Village" in the United States!Yes we beat out San Francisco.Boystown is also one of the largest cultural center for the gay,lesbians, bi and transgender communities in the nation.Boystown is not just for gays. It's for everyone. Boystown is just a big community that has great parties because it won't stop until 5 am. So have fun!
Boystown is one of my favorite areas of Chicago! There is never a dull moment or lack of people who are friendly, open, and just down right interesting! I love the area more for the people who love to chat and exchange ideas. Don't get me wrong, the parade, the bars, the restaurants, the music is all good, but its the people and the attitude of the area that makes me most intrigued and keeps bringing me back!
