Top 10 Reasons NOT to Move to Chicago, Illinois

1,000 LIKES for Detroit?

Born and raised, lived in Chicago all my life. It’s one of the most historical cities. Also one of the cleanest. Walking downtown, it is quite clean compared to other major cities. Being well-traveled myself, I would definitely say we have the BEST food out of the whole U.S. 👍 We do have lots of pot holes everywhere that made me chuckle. Being a Chicagoan, it is very flat here, all urban but that comes with pros as we don’t have to worry much about any natural disasters here. If you like the fast life & city, bars and restaurants on every corner Chicago is for you. Everything is within arms reach. Summer is the best, thousands of free events millions of tourist come to visit to attend. Not a lot of nature, but definitely a lot to do here as far as events and entertainment.

[@stitch6157]

@@williamwade3443 Rahm Emanuel focused on bringing world class institutions and international investment to Chicago as well as large scale events. He worked tirelessly to expand the core which led to a massive real estate boom, perhaps the most significant in our history and made Chicago the U.S. leader in corporate relocations/investments for 7 years consecutively. He tried to raise Chicago's global profile and keep it relevant on the world stage as the region struggles to stay within the top 5 in many metrics in the United States. Of course anyone can be criticized but compared to Lightfoot who is not a cosmopolitan mayor and lacks any vision or ambition to propel Chicago forward on a global level while she focuses on rebuilding neighborhoods that have seen disinvestment for decades and underdelivers like proposing a casino on the south or west side to prey on the poor she's a far cry from Rahm and developers are running from the ARO requirements so Chicago's one great flourishing asset, it's downtown core will stagnate as other cities greatly expand their footprints.

Chicago needs more hospitality. Bus drivers in particular are very rude.

[@demonride15]

I'm terrified when I drive in the city. The box trucks alone have no self awareness and cuts you off at every opportunity they get.

[@paularnold1930]

Its better than NYC of course. But... freezing in winter like Antarctica. Only the igloos are missing.. Then hot and stifling in summer...so fall means doing everything...jazz blues festival,, the marathon have a small window of time

[@dwr1611]

mostly spot on, except 2 things - first, the schools here are actually very good if you live in decent neighborhoods. But the city is so segregated that it is hard to generalize. Second, the diversity of Chicago is amazing. So, I'd say schools and diversity are my favorite reasons to live in Chicago. Property taxes and traffic are the worst.

That's really one of the main reasons why Chicago or Boston don't have more residents, or why many stars or he great athletes don't want to play there, because the weather is just damn bad or cold for more than half of the year. And who wants to play in the cold post when they can play on the beach in sunny Los Angeles?

[@robertlewandowski3973]

[@sidraluna]

I've lived in some of the "best places to live" both in the States and overseas. Currently, I am in New Zealand (have lived in both the North island and South island) and can tell you Chicago is actually the best place I've ever lived. There are many opportunities there. It's affordable, has excellent options for healthcare, there are good schools, always something to do, great food, high salaries, beautiful parks, etc.

That sounds precisely like Miami.

[@polishimam4956]

Im from Chicago, and I wanted to include, if you expect for a school bus to arrive on time and drive you to high school, think again. Your gonna be recommended to get a City transportation card for either the bus or train. Now to be fair, I domt know if we are the only city that does that but thats how it is here.

[@bezlichnyy7675]

@@notsure6187 Don't you dare encourage him to go to a smaller city. Small towns are downgrades. Small towns are highly over-rated, in the end they are not worth it. There is a reason large metropolitan cities are more populated than insignificant small towns. Please do your homework and research.

You absolutely do not have to be into sports to live in Chicago. I was born and raised in Chicago and never once did I pick a team to like because I'm not into sports in that way. I'd rather play them then watch them
