I don't know if I'd say Chicago is "under-served" but I will say that Chicago is an awesome city. It's probably my favorite city in the US, although I would not live there (year round) due to the harsh winters. But the food, the nightlife, the energy, the food, the music, the food, and oh yeah, did I mention the food? Seriously though, Chicago is a great place to spend time, and if you don't mind some cold weather and snow, it's probably a great place to live and work.
