AVONDALE — Described as having a "scruffy, artsy, lived-in magic," Avondale has been named one of the 10 "hottest, up-and-coming" neighborhoods in the country.

Behind the ranking is travel media company Lonely Planet, which has been putting out travel guidebooks since 1973.

The list, dubbed "Top 10 U.S. neighborhoods to visit now," was compiled by Lonely Planet writers who surveyed travel experts and locals, according to a news release.

Other neighborhoods that made the list include East Liberty and Lawrenceville in Pittsburgh, Point Loma in San Diego, Sunset Park in New York City, South 1st Street in Austin, Montavilla in Portland, River North (RiNo) in Denver, Capitol Riverfront & Yards Park in Washington, DC, East Nashville in Nashville and Frelard in Seattle.
