bro chicagoans are not country. they are very urban and gritty. and the pace of life in chicago is very fast and chicago is the 3rd biggest city in america and is not a smaller city and chicago is not too white. some white people will tell you its too black. there is almost equal numbers of white and black people in chicago. its one of the cities in america with the most black population. the economy is not too shabby, lots of companies in the loop.. Apart from that i agree with everything else you wrote hehe

We'll have to agree to disagree.

Very True. Chicago is the city that blacks flocked to from the South for jobs back in the days. Chicago is the #10 city in the world, and #2 in the US (After New York), with the most company head quarters. For those of us that have been in IT consulting in the area for years, we can attest to it. Just so many companies in he area, that finding the next gig is a breeze! Actually the state of Illinois has the 4th most fortune 500 companies in the US. Chicago is one of the top cities with the most prosperous African Americans in the US. A lot of them got their roots in this city. I see a lot of misinformation about Chicago here.

Op you did a good job ignoring some comments here, traveling in itself is self fulfillment, same one you get when you hit the money and an accomplishment big time. If you crave the awesome traveling experience, check out misstravelingdiva post here or the subreddit page, earthporn...

Any reason for that please?
There is a fire station close by and I guess they want to reduce/decongest traffic because it is always busy

I love adventures and travels. During this holiday, I have some few time for that and I decided to visit the third largest city in the USA. Chicago is indeed a mega hub in the state of Illinois. According to the 2010 census, the population was 2,697,480. I am fascinated by skyscrapers and indeed, Chicago has a lot of them. I know New York City(NYC) is another city of skyscrapers , but I shelved my visit to NYC due to the brutal cold and many restrictions as result of the rising omicron strain. However, NYC is still on my bucket list. I took a train ride operated by AMTRAK to the Chicago union station.

Wonderful thread! Chicago is my hometown (born and raised). Glad you enjoyed yourself, it’s such a great city!!!!

Damn, I'm shocked! Honestly, I didn't expect a famous city to have neighborhoods like this. Beefvale, the comparison to Africa is funny as hell. You got that right, man! But if you said that about Latvia, I'd spit in your face, I recently returned from Latvia, and it looks like they switched places with Chicago in terms of neighborhood beautification. You can check it out for yourself https://costoflivingreports.com/latvia/ I think a lot of Chicagoans will move to Latvia after that, lol. This is interesting. Chicago is the place with the most corporate headquarters. Isn't there any money to house this shit?
