The predominate theory is that Bucktown got its name in the early 1800's from its predominantly Polish population's knack for raising goats of whose the male name is buck. Bucktown houses the largest population of artists in the Midwest, most of whom live in an area called Gallery Point. Bucktown is an ideal neighborhood for the artist in anyone with loft apartments, art galleries, the Bucktown Arts Festival in August, and the Round the Coyote art festival in September which celebrates the neighborhood's creative spirit. Lately, Bucktown has been growing in popularity and attracting a diverse group of residents who enjoy the neighborhood's many restaurants, bars, clubs, boutiques, and churches. In Bucktown transportation is made easy with a Blue line El stop located at Damen and North Ave.
