Thanks for sharing your knowledge fam. Lem's Barbeque, Harold's Chicken, Chosen Few Picnic, Chi Town Steppin, Pier 31, Lake Shore Drive.....Man I love Chicago. The Summertime is legendary. I'm definitely thinking about making the move from the gulf coast...Houston to Chi-Town.
This video gave me a lot of clarification I’m moving there from Atlanta end of this year or next year to better my career but my dude has a good family so i know people which is good !! Definitely feel more confident in my decision !!!
I’m so in love with Chicago visited multiple times . Planning to leave dry ass Arizona , to relocate there within the next year 🙏🏾 originally a Midwest girl and not adjusting well in Arizona.
My man, thanks for the video ... Originally from Nebraska but moving to Chicago from Spain. All about the food ... better keep moving before I put on some weight
I visited Chicago in 2008 with family and I loved Chicago. Its ashame that the crime gives it such a bad name. I'm from Charlotte, NC and love it here but I'd love to venture out to a bigger city. Chicago is very affordable compared to cities like New York and even here though its still cheaper. Thank you!
Will SmerzOne I will and Chicago is not that expensive to live in? I’m a musician so the Windy City will be perfect for me it reminds me of New York City
I head a lot of young professionals be leaving but I really wanna move there, at least live there while I'm still young! Are there young professionals there and can I easily find a good paying job in Chicago?
If you move to Chicago or the State of Illinois then please know that you have placed yourself on the hook for about $140,000 of debt owed by each individual via unfunded liabilities, unfunded pensions, exhorborant taxes and the like. Take out one mortgage in Chicago and one is strapping one's self with two mortgages. Most everything this gentleman has said is true except that Chicago is not growing but both city and metro area is losing population with the city itself losing population since 1950 - roughly around 700,00 people. South Chicago is currently experiencing "black flight." Yes, Chicago has that beautiful lake view. If you live there then you probably rarely see it. Chicago has a beautiful downtown and a few scattered neighborhoods but mostly, honestly from what I have seen, it is ghetto. My suggestion is to look at the statistics and realize this once great city is in a financial death spiral.
I’m from Dc and it’s segregated out here to with the black neighborhoods, Hispanics and whites...it’s sad how gentrification taking over, we was known as chocolate city now they trying to push blacks out Md. Me and my friend was thinking about moving to Chicago. How much do you think is enough to save up? Which neighborhoods out there have cheap rent? It doesn’t matter what neighborhoods I lived in the worst hoods in Dc so I’m not scared as long as I don’t get involve with negative people. Is it easy to find a job out there?
Kayla Brooks Chicago is expensive. It really depends on your lifestyle. Even on the hood, rent can be $800 and up. But you might get lucky and find cheaper. Especially in the southeast side of Chicago.
@My2Cents SmerzOne Yes, it does not mean we hate other but human beings usually stick with their own, Hispanics, morenos, caucasians, Germans, indians,etc . And the list goes on and on.
Moving to Chicago from NOLA in 5 months. Loved it there when I visited in October. Visited the South Side and everything. It's a beautiful city.
Arie Marie South side?

Its not easy to find a job. I recommend to apply for jobs before you come. Its all about who you know.
Segregation is good it's natural
Truth. Especially if its for the betterment of a race
