People who have lived in Chicago, what are the main differences between it and NYC? : AskNYC
This doesn’t imply that the entire city is unsafe, rather there are certain pockets to avoid. You’ll need to do extensive research before moving to Chicago because crime is a factor. Half the residents will tell you it’s not as bad as the media portrays and the other half will tell you it’s still way too high for comfort. Before the hate mail gets stamped, recall that I’m sharing my personal list of the cons of living in Chicago. Chicago doesn’t offer much by way of outdoor recreation. Yet another unexpected perk of living in Chicago is the constant exposure to world-class architecture.
If you’re looking for fresh produce and locally made goods, then the Logan Square Farmers Market is another good choice. Chicago can be an expensive place to live, even if you’re frugal. In part, that’s because of a 10.25 percent combined state and local sales tax, a 2.25 percent sales tax on groceries, a .25 percent restaurant tax, and the second-highest property tax in the nation.
City in a garden
Hit up the Chicago Fire’s full schedule to see when the MLS will be taking over Soldier Field, and visit the SeatGeek Stadium for our beloved Chicago Red Stars. For those who don’t like to dive head first into Lake Michigan, there are plenty of opportunities to ride atop it. And now that summer temps have arrived, there's no shortage of enticing boat tours hitting Chicago’s waters. Snag a seat aboard Chicago's First Lady, Wendella Tours & Cruises, Shoreline Sightseeing, or Chicago River Boat Architecture Tours for a rip-roaring good time amid the panoramic skyline. And if you time it right, you can also scope out ART on the Mart—the dazzling digital art performance along the RiverWalk. If I were looking in that budget with having a car I'd look by the boarder of Bucktown/Logan Sq.
Devour delicious donuts like the Tahitian Vanilla Iced, Wildflower Honey Glaze, and Pistachio Old Fashioned at Firecakes Donuts. Grab Grandma Swan’s Pancakes for weekend brunch or dinner dishes like a Lobster Roll or Roasted Salmon on weeknights at The Hampton Social. Settle in for dinner, drinks, and amazing live music performances at House of Blues Chicago. Order the Roasted Bone Marrow or the Turkey Leg Confit at Mediterranean restaurant The Purple Pig. Or sample craft drinks like the Bourbon Peach Smash, Mango Mojito, and Watermelon Mule at Rock Bottom Restaurant & Brewery.
Embrace the Beach Scene
Oh, and I would be remiss to overlook the famous Chicago deep-dish pizzas and loaded hotdogs perfected in this city. If you’re on the hunt for a job, you’ll quickly find out why so many young people choose to start their careers in this great city. You may have heard that Chicagoans love their meat in tube form.
Chicago, current day does nothing for black people. Y’all living in the roaring 20s and shit. Go do something for your beloved community instead of arguing on Twitter. And Obama ain’t do shit for black people so make sure our views align before using that as a talking point goofy
