Upsides: It’s a great food town, full of culture and hard working people! People are very friendly and take care of each other. The downside is the political and economic strife.

Chicago has a unique duality that is not comparable to any major US city. While one may think that being non-coastal is a drawback for the city, Lake Michigan aids in refuting that claim as a moot point. The beaches along Lake Michigan, made accessible by the highly revered Lake Shore Drive (LSD), rival those of Malibu or Long Island. Residents are given the two unparalleled luxuries of being in the heart of the American midwest and feeling a coastal-like beach breeze.
