Bridgeport was one of the poorest neighborhoods in Chicago. It became predominantly Irish (think Mayor Daley I and II). It is now one of the most ethnically diverse neighborhoods in the city. Glenview, Glenbrook, Country Club Hills, Tall Trees, and Calumet are all familiar names around Chicago. I wonder if other parts of the country share these names.
