big city living that won't break the bank. houston is spread out. its not like that here. the winters here are a bytch tho. however, it was very mild this winter. we really only got snow like 3 or 4 times total.

ya'll know that "dangerous" talk is mostly

Only problem here is the winters. If you mind your business and stay out of unsafe neighborhoods you'll be fine

Its like New York right?

new york is dirtier, more crowed, and generally looks older tho. no bridges here raping you to go between neighborhoods. we have excellent public transportation as well.

What New York use to be. Aint nobody scared of NY no more. White folks done bought Harlem and the Jews bought Brooklyn

I was born n raised on da soufside, but once i left for college i aint really "lived" there since tho. shyt I aint been back home in dam near 6 years. But i miss da summers. Gettin on da Metra and goin downtown. Shed Aquarium, Field Museum, walkin on da shore, Fox's Pizza, Taste of Chicago. Think imma have to make a trip back dis summa.

Growin up there during the 90s-early 2000s was da best. Rangin from dem old skool looney tune towel jackets, spray painted jodeci boots, foot workin, to crashin other high school mixers n shyt. Chi heads know bout dem thangs.

You'd definitely like it if you didn't grow up here. People that grew up here are hit and miss on it, but I love my city. Nothing like Chi in the summer, after our winters it feels like you earned them.... I even got a lick where i get rooms downtown in the summer when I want to get away, stay on Michigan or close to it and spend the day stopping at bars, eating, and looking at the women that are EVERYWHERE shopping or working out. I got a girl nowm so she goes with me usually, but back in the day

All my fam is in the Chi and I lived there off and own growing up even spending 2 years of high school up there. I live in Jacksonville, Fl now and I miss the big city

The Chi has long brutal winters but hot ass summers.

It is dangerous IF you are on some bullshyt. Everyone of my fam or friends that has passed away has because of gang related activity. If you not on no gangsta shyt, then you will be fine. I survived fine in the heart of the southside and I was a neutron. But all my fam is some stones, so I was straight

shyt is mad expensive, especially housing. You can rent a whole fukking house down south for what you would pay for a two bedroom apt in the Chi

You don't need a car. The public transportation is more than adequate if you choose to take that route

City has a fast paced vibe

Some of the greatest food in the world

i wouldn't rate the quality of females that high, compared to other places I have lived. The big city to dime-piece ratio is out of wack

Summertime block parties in the hood

Harold's with mild sauce

Half off Whitesox tickets on Monday home games (if they still do that)
