Just moved out of Chicago. Would not recommend. Besides the north corner and downtown the city and state are broke poor and crime ridden.

Enjoy your insane taxes without much to show for it. Chicago is notorious for corruption and the massive state budget routinely evaporates and screws everyone

FWIW, I moved back to Chicago from SF. Would totally recommend. World class cultural institutions (SFBA can feel a little provencial at times), great quality of life, super affordable for a city of its stature so starting a business is much much cheaper here.

To each their own, but if you think taxes or politics are broken here, you've clearly not experienced SF. :)

Didn't move there either for many of the same reasons :) . Nicer weather but otherwise most of the same issues
