I've lived in the city my entire life - the loop is where a lot of businesses are located and where tourists congregate. Anyone who thinks it is a great place to live, must either be an out-of-towner or too new to the city to know any better. There is not a "neighborhood" because there are less than half a dozen properties in the entire defined loop area that are residences. The closest actual residential areas are either north, south or west of the loop. Most of what is in the Loop is just steel, brick and glass - people don't live here. If by chance you do live here, you wouldn't really know who your neighbor was because they would be indoors or when outdoors, would physically be somewhere other than the loop, such as parks to the east, north or south, or shopping, primarily west, north or south, away from the loop area.
