    Omg I didn't realize you came back!! I just saw the last video I commented on was 10 months ago! Love the green on you. And yes, as a Chicago Native that wants to come to Chicago, it's fun yet challenging. So many natives struggle to afford rent and so many ppl have moved to other cities. Be ready to budget hard!

    That’s true because moving to another state with no friends or family will bother you at some point in your life. I moved to Houston 10 years ago and now I’m ready to be around my family so Chicago it is. I hope I like it🤎🤞🏽

    The reason Los Angeles is more divided are several reasons. It's very spread out! People in denser cities are forced to get along! They ride the subway together. Los Angeles also has a huge inequality problem due to cost of living etc. I think there's also language barriers and other issues that cause friction. The biggest factors are the huge income gap between the rich and the poor!

    It was the first question for me … I really had to think about because the time is almost here for me to move there again but I definitely feel way more prepared this time around … I really had to get realistic about my move

    What do you feel is a comfortable salary for a single person with no children in Chicago? Also what would be the absolute bare minimum salary?

    • @Ayahna
      @Ayahna  ปีที่แล้ว

      I think that's relative. Comfortable can depend on what a person deems comfortable.

    I don’t think addressing the violence is feeding into some sort of narrative, especially when the crime rates here are substantially higher than a lot of places. How can addressing public safety and issues dealing with your own personal safety be passé? You can’t do much of anything if you’re severely injured or worse. I just don’t get that. Call me crazy I guess. I’am a realist, my safety and the safety of others is TOP PRIORITY.

    It's too much like NYC. It's cold, crowded and crime ridden! I prefer living in a less crowded safer area. I don't like gang violence or dealing with players.

    It’s just too much!! That’s a great place to visit but not live to me personally!! The poverty there is terrible and crime is wayyy to high!! People care more about the new Jordan’s than actually getting a degree… running a business.. etc Just my personally opinion.

      I think crime in America is bad in general.
