East Cesar Chavez has one of the deepest, least-hyped histories of any neighborhood on this list — a historically Latino community along the lake that still has some of the best taquerias in the city sitting next to dive bars that have been there for decades. It's a neighborhood to eat your way through, not just pass on the way to Rainey Street next door.
