not really for the lakefront northside.
going west from the lakefront on the northside, there are several community areas in the central zone that saw gentrification-induced population loss (logan square, avondale, irving park, albany park, portage park, etc.), but that's a very different dynamic than what's happening on the far southside.

Household sizes. Household sizes. Household sizes.
Looking at households and units, Englewood, West Englewood, and Roseland are still in decline. The rest are mostly stable or actually have increasing households. There’s just very little new construction to counter smaller household sizes.
