Multifamily housing and Victorian-inspired gems
Lincoln Hill offers quiet, residential streets lined with sidewalks, lawns and a mix of single- and multifamily homes. "They're going to be somewhat older homes, which is the nature of buying in the city," Johnson says. Most homes here were built throughout the 20th century; architectural styles are diverse, but Colonial, Craftsman or Victorian-inspired features are typical. Front porches are common, and many homes have uncovered driveways. Certain Victorian-inspired homes stand out with ornate details like decorative gables and elegant bay windows.
Roughly 70% of residents are renters, and a handful of fixer-uppers are available, making the neighborhood popular with property investors. Prices range from about $50,000 to $500,000, depending on a home's size, features and renovation needs.

Neighborhood markets and downtown dining
Lincoln Hill is primarily residential with a handful of businesses. "There are a ton of small corner stores where you can get the majority of items, but you're not going to have full grocery stores," Johnson says. Dominick's Market is an old-school grocer with pantry essentials, produce and fresh meats, including oxtail and Italian sausages. Hawley Market has ice cream scoops and fast-casual bites, like breakfast sandwiches and mozzarella sticks. McNeilly's Pub is the neighborhood watering hole and pool hall — a popular spot to watch the game, throw darts or play a round of Galaga with beer on tap. For more shopping and dining needs, downtown has dozens of bars, cafes and restaurants. Funk n' Waffles is a casual spot for coffee and gourmet waffles with live music, while family-run Abbiocco by A Mano is a date-night favorite serving Italian specialties like orange-chocolate cannolis, veal chop parmigiana and housemade gnocchi.
