I live in chicago( south loop/pilsen ) too. What has been going on lately that is making you consider the move?

FWIW I lived and worked in Chicago for 10 years. Never liked it. Expensive, and life just seemed really complicated. I always felt stressed out. If you grew up in a rural or small town lifestyle, it's a big adjustment.

Eventually moved back to my hometown and wouldn't care if I never saw Chicago again.
