Well obviously not everyone as I love it but im ok with you guys not wanting to be there. I have a feeling if you don’t like chicago you would not like toronto.
I don’t have a strong opinion on Chicago, I’ve only spent a few days there and it was downtown in a cold snap in February. There were some nice things to do but it was expensive and overall I’ve had better experiences in other cities. I liked it better than my wife did, she hates the cold. I on the other hand like to go snow camping (without her).
The people in the rest of the state hate Chicago because it dominates the politics, and the few Chicagoans I know aren’t a fan of the rest of the state. For awhile I lived in St. Louis but worked across the river. I still have to drive across Illinois pretty often. It’s flat fields of corn and thunderstorms in the summer, and frigid and hostile in the winter. I don’t really hate Illinois by any means and I didn’t choose to move away - I was only two and my parents moved to the Netherlands. I actually like Champaign/Urbana, I have lots of connections there. I still wouldn’t choose to live in Illinois though.
no fair man. illinois. illinois.
Everybody hates Illinois. People who live there even hate it. I was born there and promptly left.
Also lived there, also hated it. Never again
