Re: On the move...
I've grown up in the outlying suburbs of Chicago my entire life, and I've been attending school at Chicago...so for 9 months out of the year I'm in the city.
I love it...short summary of how I feel.
It really is a wonderful city; it has a gorgeous skyline, a beautiful lake front, and a lot of the action ISN'T in the downtown area. In fact, most of the time The Loop shuts down around 10 or 11 on weekends, and 9 or 10 during the week. But, there is always something going down on the North Side. There are tons of bars, clubs, and restaurants. There are so many wonderful restaurants...
There's always something going on in the City, some show or festival or event. And there are tons of stuff to explore...there's too much to do, basically.
Oh, and it is a clean city. They keep it clean, the downtown area is very nice. And, they're slowly cleaning up the Southwest side, which is good news for everyone
I think you will like it. But, some people don't like the city. Hopefully you like cities.
