BRIDGEPORT — Be proud, neighbors.

You live in one of Chicago’s coolest 'hoods.

That’s according to a list published by CNN, which also named Pilsen, Ukrainian Village and Uptown some of the city's sweetest spots.

Author Christina Zdanowicz gave shout-outs to Maria’s Packaged Goods and Bridgeport Bakery as two of Bridgeport’s favorite haunts.
