I moved here 10 years ago from the South and while staying with a friend on the Northside while apartment hunting, I discovered the Southside which reminded me of the South in some areas. I've got a one bedroom with free assigned parking space, central air , wah/dry in building and there is no comma in my rent and I'm not in the hood. Found it on Craiglsit while they (independent landlord) were remodeling the building. Best decision I ever made.
How is Pilsen not on here??? And nothing South of 35th? Chicago is my city and I've lived everywhere except in the lake! Highly recommend looking at Pilsen, Humboldt, Bronzeville, Kenwood, Uptown for newcomers. You can find some of the CTA -accessible spots with less sticker shock and more diversity than some of these other spots.
Well Andy you're entitled to your opinion. However many people would have to grow a money tree in their backyard to afford the Lincoln Park, Bucktown, and Loop area. I'm a native Chicagoan, and I would recommend places like Portage Park area, Old Irving Park, Dunning Area, Edison Park to name a few........in other words the Northwest side. Much more affordable. Why didn't you mention those significant areas. I'm wondering how long you've lived here
All very good points Linda! And I appreciate the inquiry, I in fact LOVE the northwest side. I’m currently filming an in-depth series of each neighborhood (78 videos) and I will definitely be touching on the north west side. Old Irving Park, and Edison Park see two of my favorite spots, this particular video is just meant as a primer for those new to Chicago and brief info on some of the most popular areas. Seriously, greatly appreciate the comment and hope you’ll bring this same perception on my new ones coming out soon!
@@AndySellsChicago we need the real raw nitty gritty info not popular places. Moving from Dtx to get away from the popular for no reason, high cost of living crowd.
Moving to Chicago and was wondering if West Loop is safe for single female? Work is downtown and would commute via train. So far people recommend River North, Lincoln Park, South Loop and Gold Coast.
Yes for sure! Absolutely safe. You could quite a few more neighborhoods to the mix, but basically stay a long side the trains to the north (Brown/Red) and Northwest (Blue). The south is fine, but for an out-of-towner I would recommend against it. So, with that being said - skip the south loop
@@briii309 LOVE this question Sabrina. Honestly it really depends ALOT on your personality and what you are looking for in an area. As for me, I love being close to the action so River West takes the cake for being the better spot. It's also nearby some of the best restaurants, and I LOVE food!
I wouldn't live in either one of those cities,they are full of crime and corruption and they are overrated, overtaxed and over populated. I would rather live in a small town with almost no crime and hear nothing but crickets at night, not guns and loud vehicles all night especially jets flying over head keeping me up all night
@@Vincent-ke5zn Aside from how biased and inaccurate your comment is, why are you even on a video about moving to this city then? Just because you're so desperate for attention that you need to seek it out in such a desperate way? Congrats I guess, you got it.
@@Vincent-ke5zn to each their own. I can’t imagine living in a small town where there’s not as much diversity in neighbors, food, and culture. Everythings chill up here in the north side as long as you don’t go roaming around at night which is fine w me lol.
I’m gonna go ahead and say it- at least post pandemic there’s really nothing to do downtown. I moved to Chicago as a grad student (still finishing my MFA) in 2020, I originally moved to the south loop, then lived in the Pittsfield- a cheap building for students, young professionals, and other lower income people next millennium Park- before moving to streeterville (the worst area in the city in my book) for the better part of 2021, then finally moving to Lincoln Park, where I reside now. While living in the loop, I found multiple expensive restaurants, the infamous shops, closing early, and overall lights very little barring the park- more so grant, aside from skating at the ribbon, and I don’t like millennium- with streeterville, being the most egregious example of where I lived. The near North in general is very, very vapid and touristy, but Streeterville is where you live in the area if you’re an old person who wants to be a little bit away from the bars, so I quite literally as a 24-year-old had nothing to do in my neighborhood. I wouldn’t include Chinatown as part of downtown- most people here in the city, considered to be the near south side- and have other issues with this videos Examples, of what constitutes which region. Personally, if you want ‘adventure’ as this video puts it, you’re better off on the near west side, near southside or south loop, and the far north, for Chicago I would put it this way, downtown is simply a business district- at least, following the lightfoot administration- where are you go home after work.
👀 I feel like a big point to make is that downtown Chicago is *not* like New York City, Eg. It is *not* alive all night. Downtown Chicago is a working city. So most people work downtown during the day and leave to the suburbs/surrounding areas at night. So, in my opinion, downtown gets verrry quiet. I lived in the South Loop and bruh. You really need to be confident to live Downtown because I just felt it got super quiet, but still had some “characters” who hang out around the city at night. Sorry, but I didn’t see this in the video and thought it was important.
Very True Mina, I know pre pandemic they were trying to revitalize some areas but things are a little haywire right now because of all the issues we’re having.
I typically let people know exactly what you’re saying, for reasons beyond me many clients still want to live in the loop, though I guess it’s what they want. I need something a bit more neighborly
Chicago native here. I don't appreciate how you restricted the southside to those couple of neighborhoods. There are areas like Hyde Park/Kenwood, Southshore, Beverly, Morgan Park, Pullman, Bedford Park etc. And please, in the future give notice to minorities that this is an extremely segregated city, where minorities will have a vastly different experience.
I appreciate the criticism, it was tough to summarize the entire city within 10 minutes, but having lived further south for the past year (Beverly) I've grown beyond my originally perspective. I should make a new video to correct this
Looking to move in a few months… which area would you say is the most neighborhoodly but still has the city vibes. Maybe a area where you would or wouldn’t need a car. Thanks and would love to use you to help find a place
Sure brother, that's a great question. A few off the top of my head that I would recommend are Old Town, and Fulton Market. Of course there are also about a dozen places I would also recommend, and figuring those out might come from a quick conversation. When the time is right, reach out! social.bignextmove.com/contact
Hi Andy, could you please do two videos about the fancy offices and departments in the loop area, as well as, those lake´s neighborhoods with their fancy houses?
Hi… I’m a native NY’er.. I’m trying to relocate to Chi town, but still unsure. Hoping is not the same or worst than NYC. TY for the video, very informative.
My family is from Brooklyn but live in Chicago now (I was born here but visit NY every year) I think you’ll love it, it has a lot of the vibes of NY but cleaner, and definitely cheaper.
Hey Vee happy to help! Pros and cons to both cities and it’s impossible to say which is better overall but for me I found the answer when I asked myself what’s the best for me RIGHT NOW.
As someone who has family in NYC. It has visited the family multiple times and live downtown in Chicago, don’t ever move downtown. It might look in a superficial way like New York, but couldn’t be culturally further, zero bodegas/corner stores, everything closes at 5 PM, very few cheap restaurants and fewer bars with almost no extended socials 3rd spaces. In terms of recommendations, I would consider the northside- north of Lincoln Park, there’s actually nothing to do here, unlike what this video says, everything in “Lincoln Park” is in Lakeview, they just happen to be walking distance from each other- if not the West side- Wicker Park, Logan Square, Greektown, University Village, Fulton Market, and Pilsen are full of things to do, and will be more amenable to a metropolitan lifestyle, akin to NYC, as opposed to the geriatric lifestyle you get downtown.
So funny! I've been living in New York City since 1997, originally from South Florida. And for some reason Chicago has always been in my mind and heart. Now that my girlfriend and I have the ability to work remote we spoke about relocating in South Florida but for some reason I'm just not feeling that vibe as I'm all too familiar with it from my past. But Chicago as odd as it may sound feels like a place I can work remote especially having that City vibe. Also it's much much cleaner than the streets of NYC. My friends thought I was nuts when I told him I may want to work live and play in Chicago as opposed to South Florida, but I know the energy is nowhere near NYC, but Chicago seems like a nice little place plus we can move around especially in the winter time to South Florida or nevada, California to get away from the brutal winter. But we do plan on going to Chicago this summer just to walk around because my girlfriend hasn't been there but she seems very excited to feel the Chicago vibe. Also one thing that really really turns me off about living in Chicago is the real estate taxes as we would plan to purchase a condo if we move. But the taxes are outrageous! That would probably be the only con about living in Chicago. But I guess they are other pros that make up for this flaw .. I definitely know when looking on Zillow the apartments for sale in Chicago would be two, three times that amount in Manhattan so I have to take the good in the bad 😎👊. Anyways nice video thank you again. 👍
Hey Eamonn, great question. I think the general image of Chicago as being a crime-ridden city is a bit exaggerated. Take a look at this link : www.cbsnews.com/pictures/murder-map-deadliest-u-s-cities/55/
Born and raised in Chicago .... the best place to live in Chicago is Florida...... the taxes and fees are a killer .... Chicago is trying to be NYC and failing miserably.. But I love my city
I will say something tho, logan square is not considered the west side.... the south side gave us the first lady and president Barack Obama... besides the 1st ferriswheel or the 8hr workday or elevator or house or jazz music, it was the birthplace of the skyscraper. The architectural offices of Skidmore Owings Merrill that are hq here also built the current worlds tallest building in Dubai. So even the richest royal crown prince still has the tallest buildings in the world designed by Chicagoans....
I think it depends on who you ask, when most of my clients who relocate to Chicago proper, many think Logan is the 'west side'. Curious what your opinion is - what is the west side, and would you consider logan to be NW side?
I would challenge you to do more research into the Southside of Chicago beyond blanket statements of crime without statistics. Areas such as Hyde Park near University of Chicago and Beverly are examples of thriving communities on the Southside.
Totally agree Donna, Beverly is actually one of my favorite neighborhoods in the south. Also a big fan of Pullman as well! I hope in my video I didn't come across as ignorant regarding crime and statistics, because I am indeed of the same belief in that Chicago isn't as dangerous as the media portrays it to be.
Love to hear positive things about south side. Can you recommend some neighborhood around IIT chicago for students to live economically and have safer commute to university?
Step1. Don't come to Chicago Step 2. Move to a lower tax state with booming business environment Step3. Live a lower stress life with better job opportunities and less bullshit taxes.
I can understand your sentiment Christian! There are so many things I wish were different about Chicago, and I know it seems like we have to deal with so much bullshit. Just some food for thought from someone who has lived in 4 other major cities (NYC,LA,SEA,AUS) Chicago has SO much more to offer for the price.
@Random Monacur 1000% agree looking to escape dtx AS Soon As Humanly Possible tho defly considering the cold weather months & if I should move after to find a comfy affordable area to move to in Chicago as a 21 year old dancer still being able to utilize public transportation
That's hard to quantify, it's more situational than anything. Don't get caught at 4am, drunk in an alleyway. Even in the Gold Coast you could find trouble
You talk about all these communities but you don't talk about how much it cost you to live there most people can't afford those or those $1500 apart apartments And the ones you can afford look like c*** And the neighborhood is bad
Yes - unfortunately these areas are quite pricey. I am currently shooting new videos for every neighborhood in Chicago to bring the city under a finer scope. That being said, there are still deals to be had, I personally recommend finding a realtor that can search for properties 65+ days out
My son lived all over Chicago and I’m glad he finally left the city and made the move to Vero Beach, Fl. I never understood why or how anyone could live in an area so loud with the L trains and the constant yelling and loud vehicles and the high crime rate…and the worst weather…
It's actually pretty sad that people like you waste your time going onto videos for cities you hate just so you can write negative comments about them. It gains you absolutely nothing other than a few seconds of pointless attention lol. I just pity you more than anything else honestly because there are so many better things you could be doing with your time.

You're 100% right, it was tough to fit everything in 1 video. I just bought a place in Bronzeville, it's a booming area.
How come he didn't do a tour of "o" block where little dirk and them are from?
My fiance and I just moved to West Loop from San Diego, and so far we're absolutely loving it.
What are you enjoying so far? Summer here is the best place in the world just about. I want to move to San Diego, that’s funny.
Love West Loop! Have you had a chance to check out Fulton Market?
@@kevinmyrick218 San Diego is nice but it is car centric, it's LA light.
Be prepared to drive everywhere for everything.
At 11:20 - Palmisano Park in Bridgeport. It sits where a quarry once stood.
Awesome video, very helpful
My personal pick would be
1. Lincoln Park
2. Downtown
3. West
4. North
5. South
Great tips!! Keep posting!
