Summer time in chicago
Affordable housing compared to other large cities
virtually anything and everything a big city has to offer
good public transit (el train, metra, cta)
change of seasons
diversity

1) The Tootsie Roll factory
2) Once you're "in" Chicago, there's no getting out. Less "choice-stress".
3) Only a couple of hours to Coldwater MI and the "chain o' lakes". (yes,
you can still vacation - just can't move anymore)
4) Wrigley Field
5) You can spend your nights counting floors in the Sear's Tower
6) A "street-style" like no other (possible exception - Capetown, S. Af.)
(When the rest of the world was dressing like Piccadilly Square,
Chicagoans were rolling up the levi-legs and wearing white socks and
black shoes).
7) Dreams of having a Lakefront office. (I used to have one of these).
8) They still play the blues in Chicago - whenever baseball season
comes around. Go Cubs!
9) Da Bears.
10) Da Bulls
11) Home of the Belushi brothers
12) Home of the flying Reynolds brothers
13) Compared to Gary, it's heaven!
14) Compared to Crown Point, it's heaven
15) Tell 'em "Barrack sent me".
