What up y'all, thanks so much for watching! I hope you find this Moving to Chicago guide useful, reply to this comment with your #1 moving tip! Take care!! Peace & Blessings
Go Luis Gusto I enjoy all of your videos! It’s like taking a history class in person! I can’t wait until this pandemic is over, so I can come and visit
@Jaylen-Ree Wilson damn sound just like me ..I'm always saying how big cities are nice and people down here talk about crime and traffic ...they live in a non cultural bubble ...lmk if looking for roommate in future lol
@OH Yeh! of course we have problems as most other major cities do but you have to realize the crime in Chicago is segregated. Where these crimes take place and happen the most at vs. Where you actually are at
@@sheneedsyrruup Im saying most of the crimes are in local communities that tourist and most people never visit. One block of Chicago can be flourishing with business and money flow while other parts the only thing you would see over there is low income housing and neighborhood shops. Most the crime that takes places in Chicago happens in places you would probally never visit.
both of my parents grew up on the southside, my stepdad grew up in Evanston, and I was born and raised in the NW suburbs. After college I’m so moving to chicago. the pride is real. there really is no place like Chicago
Lived there for 5 years..those winters can be brutal. After being away for three years now though, I'm considering moving back again LOL :P I totally miss the summers/early fall and *the lakefront*. I had a few people tell me to get a car, but I loved living there without one. Oh yeah - compared to Atlanta, I never found Chicago hot or humid. For me, South Loop is where it's at.
I feel you on the winters, one thing I try to do is schedule trips to Florida during the season to break up the cold weather routine. Trust me, I know the feeling! When I left after grad school, I constantly felt the tug of Chicago life and within a year and a half started making plans to come back. Yea, honestly a car is just a bonus for road trips or maybe big grocery runs, but otherwise it's pretty easy to move around the city. South Loop is dope, one of my best friends lives there and the new DePaul basketball arena is in the neighborhood. Thanks so much for watching!
You’re super pretty! This video was very helpful and I enjoyed reading your comment. Have you moved back yet? Btw, I just subscribed to your channel! 🌷
@@prettyroyalqueen4823 Aw, you're too kind..thank you! I have not moved back yet. However, my job is based in Chicago although I work remotely currently in Atlanta. I have plans to start spending more time back in Chicago soon, just trying to determine how soon because of course COVID is putting a bit of a damper on things. And thanks for subscribing; I'm pretty inactive on UA-cam but I literally have tonnnnsss of video I need to upload so you just reminded me to spend some time perhaps putting up some recent content :)
Jadexplores All glory be to God! Be sure to check out my channel where I share a very powerful testimony. I’ve been through a lot, but God helped carry me through and is still carrying me even now! I walk by faith and not by sight! Halleluyah! Awww!!! Wow! How cool that you’re able to work remotely! Do you have an Instagram? If so, add me. Let’s keep in touch, if that’s cool??? ☺️ Pretty_Royal_Queen
Its been my dream to live in Chicago since i was a 5 lol Born and raised in Tampa FL and have been going up there to visit family and watch sox games pretty much my whole life I was shocked to see how if i had a full time job up there i could easily afford to rent a room and I'm definitely going to try to work that out
I've been to Tampa a few times, it's a short drive from Gainesville. Funny that you mention the Sox bc the last time I went to Tampa in 2014 was to see them play against the Rays. Hope you're able to make the move!
Its built different for sure. The grid had to expand in its spacing in order to accommodate alleys into it. The resulting wideness allowed bigger sidewalks. Its built like the surrounding areas with exception of the skyscrapers. Broad flat and wide. The suburbs are built like that too, also very broad and wide. 6 lane roads like ogden golf, or roosevelt, or higgins or randall roads are built for the car. Not so downtown or throughout most of the city which is only 30mph max speed. I was born raised 60630 through the 80s n 90s
Thanks Luis! As a college graduate about to move to Chicago, your videos have been by far the most helpful! You also have such a positive outlook on life and I feel really happy after I watch your videos!
Hi Luis, I am moving to Chicago in Feb 2022 for work. I am a CIPP/US professional. I'll be staying there for 4 years but I wish to extend it and settle there for lifetime. This video really helped. I was thinking of getting a car but I don't think so i need it now.
Born and raised in Chicago. I just moved to Nevada last week at 50. Chicago has the best people. The best food and culture. Museums and theatres. Navy pier. The winter is cold but beautiful. Dress right and you will be ok. I always owned a car in Chicago .public transportation is incredible. Chicago will always be in my heart.
My daughter, born and raised in Miami Beach, went to Chicago to attend The University of Chicago (Chicago has amazing schools). She fell in love with the city, and has now lived half her life there. My husband and I ended up buying a condo in the city and go in Spring and Fall every year. We love it and it’s seasons! Winter back in Miami Beach😂
I’m in Atlanta and I’m originally from Chicago! I miss my hometown, the food here in Atlanta, is not so great, in most places. I miss the beautiful Lakefront. It is still a great city.
Good video, I love Chicago and have wanted to move there since the first time I visited when I was 10 years old. I am trying to convince my wife to have us move up there after we both finish grad school.
You did an excellent job of describing Chicago. I was born and raised in Chicago in what is now Roscoe Village. Been living in S.F. Bay area 42 years. I still feel like a Chicagoan passing through. Often thought about moving back, but the weather prevents me. Still looking for a good hot dog,Italian Beef and decent pizza. You are not going to find anywhere in California.
As someone who lives in the Bay Area I can for sure back that. Chicago pizza here is very underwhelming but we have a pho place on every block on boba everywhere 😂
Been here for almost 20 years and don’t want to go anywhere else!!! I live in the most diverse neighborhood, Albany Park, and I love all the cultures I walk past every day…love this video and as a transplanted but still serious Chicagoan…this is the best place in the US!
Also, if you are on the expressway, remember…East to go South/West to go North. And numbers won’t be used so get used to those names…Kennedy, Jane Adams, Edens, the Ile, etc.
I also grew up in South Florida and go to college in Gainesville, and also would consider Chicago maybe for grad school. The weather would be a big adjustment but I love the idea of being up there!
Incredible, good luck with school! It's definitely a great city for college students. Fall is my favorite season too, such a nice atmosphere. Appreciate you watching!!
Moving in August for school. I live and grew up in Rockford Illinois so Chicago has always been a "big brother" city to day trip to for concerts and events looking forward to spending a lot of time there in the near future
I think the winters are generally overstated. I am from Long Island originally and have lived in Brooklyn twice. In many years the winters in New York were just as bad or worse.
Thank you for making this video! As a SoCal native, I would like to move to Chicago for grad school and beyond. I’m tired of San Diego because I don’t feel like people are friendly here. I have family in Chicago and my mom was born and raised in Chicago too. Whenever I’ve visited other places in the Midwest, everyone is so nice to me and my family. Even if I’ve never met them, they always say hello. I want that in a place I decide to live in. Thank you for being so informative!
I’m here in San Diego as well and people are not friendly indeed regardless of how many years one lives here. I need the sense of community back and gonna visit Chicago soon!
ive always wanted to move to chicago to pursue my dream becoming an orthodontist. this video has helped me so much and has made me want to move there more than ever. i already live in a cold country so it suits me :D
My man, this was such a great video. I grew up in the Chicago suburbs and moved to Michigan, but I’m looking for a job in Chicago to move back. Trying to find a job and a place in the city. This was both informative and got me really excited to be looking! Great content man. Love your style.
Considering a move to Chicago after college for a job in finance. I’m from Ireland and this video has been a lot of help. Thanks a lot Luis! Great video!
Hit me up when I move here in a few years, love the food, love the sports, love the sights. I live in Michigan right now and am about to go into my senior year of high school
I desperately want to leave my small town in southern Louisiana, and I’m feeling really drawn to the Chicago area. One of my biggest concerns is choosing a decent neighborhood to live in. What advice can y’all offer me on that?
Wicker park, lakeview, andersonville, boystown and West loop. if you are looking for cheaper rent, look for uptown neighborhoods like irving park, jefferson park, old town.
I moved to Chicago from California a few months ago. I didn't really have a reason, just wanted something different. I really like it though and I don't regret my move. Funny that people told me that Chicagoans are nice. Maybe in the suburbs.... I have yet to meet a nice person in Chicago, lol
I’ve lived 10 years in the suburbs and I can definitely say that people are nicer here but since I was also born and raised in Chicago they also have some nice people there.
I’m thinking extra hard about making a big move all by myself to this city from upstate new york. i want to experience living somewhere new but i really don’t know where to begin.
Crazy how your FL experience is so different from mine! Or maybe Orlando/central Florida is just a different entity. Orlando is a HUGE tourist city and I work on International Dr so diversity was big and so was the friendliness. In general people are super helpful and you can run into any nationality. I’ve come to love this part of Florida but I’m also excited to move to Chicago in the next couple years 🎉
thanks for the video man! I'm a college grad who's now working in finance and is ready to move to a bigger city (hometown, Tulsa Oklahoma). Chicago seems like the perfect choice considering it's affordable than my other option (Denver). can't wait to make it out there!
Good clip, Mr. Gusto. Esp the part about it being a city of neighborhoods. Was very happy to see in another clip you clearing up the business about deep-dish. All true Chicagoans know tavern-cut thin-crust is the real Chicago pizza. The only 36th thing I can think of is that you're not allowed to put ketchup on your hotdog here. ;-)
Yea winter can be a tough time to move, I was fortunate to be able to live with family and go to school so I was surrounded by a lot of people. This winter may be difficult considering everyone is working remote for the forseeable future.
Besides having one of the most beautiful city scapes in the world, the lake and parks are beautiful. The city is so diverse, you can meet people of all nationalities and races. The city is made up of little neighborhoods that provide a taste of every culture. It's a city seeped in culture. The music scene is top notch and there are museums of every type here. The zoos are amazing and stores that rival any in the world. We have great (some years) sports teams, with avid fans. The weather can be brutal in winter, but you tend to forget about it when weighed against all the positive things the city has to offer.
This gonna sound crazy. I used to live in NY then got moved to the south and I’ve wanted to live in a city again and I tried going to the military but didn’t like living like that but when I was in RTC I hated it but I do want to try checking the city out and consider moving because I need a change.
I grew up in south florida and going to UF in Gainesville right now. Got family from Chicago and visit every summer. Love your video spitting real facts. I plan on moving there for grad school for business. Any recommendations for programs and stuff?

I really appreciate that! I love sharing the history of the city, there are so many things to discover. Hope you can visit Chicago soon!

Lived in Chicago my whole life I didn't know y'all loved us like this 😭
Best city in the world 💯

Me too😭😭
Living there as a German works also?

Tbh ion ever catch in traffic cuz I have the streets memorized I use highways side streets alleys everything 😭😭
Its been my dream to live in Chicago since i was a 5 lol
Born and raised in Tampa FL and have been going up there to visit family and watch sox games pretty much my whole life
I was shocked to see how if i had a full time job up there i could easily afford to rent a room and I'm definitely going to try to work that out

I’m moving to Chicago in a few weeks 😁
@@icanntseeyou whats it like there :O
Such a beautiful, proud and interesting city.
💯
And the House music streaming out of that city is superb!!! Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
I visited Chicago earlier this year. One thing I really liked was the amount of space to walk in the city compared to here in NYC.
Cool cool! Yea this is definitely a walker's paradise, though I still think there are more improvements that the city can make

Alot of those near suburbs have downtowns to them that would convince out of towners, that they're within city limits, even though they arent

Radiation Therapist moving to Chicago in May! So excited!
I desperately want to leave my small town in southern Louisiana, and I’m feeling really drawn to the Chicago area. One of my biggest concerns is choosing a decent neighborhood to live in. What advice can y’all offer me on that?
look into wicker park
Wicker park, lakeview, andersonville, boystown and West loop. if you are looking for cheaper rent, look for uptown neighborhoods like irving park, jefferson park, old town.
Evanston is an awesome place but it is expensive
Me too, born and raised in Houston and am also feeling very drawn to Chicago.
Did you end up moving to Chicago? :)
I moved to Chicago from California a few months ago. I didn't really have a reason, just wanted something different. I really like it though and I don't regret my move. Funny that people told me that Chicagoans are nice. Maybe in the suburbs.... I have yet to meet a nice person in Chicago, lol

Hi! I love your UA-cam channel! Can you do a video about how to stay safe in Chicago? I wish I could move to this city one day :)
Considering to move to Chicago and this video was definitely helpful! Great to hear you talk about the city!
I’m thinking extra hard about making a big move all by myself to this city from upstate new york. i want to experience living somewhere new but i really don’t know where to begin.
It's a big decision, but every plan starts with the first step!
Hi, did you move yet?
Great, great video always wanted to visited Chicago and New Orleans. Glad to know there's love for NYC! Peace and blessings.
Thank you! You should definitely visit!
I've lived here for 9 years and this just made me happy :)
Great to hear 😀🙌
Thank you so much for this! I'm graduating college soon and am looking at jobs in Chicago, and really needed some info on the city!
Moving to Chicago in June!😍😍😍
This is so helpful as someone who just moved!
Moving from Atlanta to Chicago I’m sooo excited!!!! Ur video got me amped !!!!!
I'm applying for a Writing Job in Chicago
This video is so simplified, informative.and helpful. Thanks. 👍❤️
I live 2 hours from Chicago and feel drawn to it.
I grew up in Chicago and left in the freshman year of high school. I haven’t been back in a decade. I miss Chi-town.
I feel ya!

Appreciate it! It's my pleasure!
A pleasure to watch!
thank god. as a free agent who just signed with the bulls I'm happy I can watch this video
Very informative, thank you!
I plan back in chicago next year.
I can’t wait to move there in June!
thanks for the video man! I'm a college grad who's now working in finance and is ready to move to a bigger city (hometown, Tulsa Oklahoma). Chicago seems like the perfect choice considering it's affordable than my other option (Denver).
can't wait to make it out there!
If anyone is in to that we also have a great drag scene
True true
The exception to the truce with NYC is in the theater and entertainment community.
Good clip, Mr. Gusto. Esp the part about it being a city of neighborhoods. Was very happy to see in another clip you clearing up the business about deep-dish.

Sounds good. I'm just not good at socializing. So, if I arrive during winter, I'll probably be alone for the first few months that I'm there.
Yea winter can be a tough time to move, I was fortunate to be able to live with family and go to school so I was surrounded by a lot of people. This winter may be difficult considering everyone is working remote for the forseeable future.
Great info in this video! I might just make the move for the food!
That's a great idea!
I love Chicago i pray i Can go there soon
When I got to Miami I just talk to people. I don’t care if it bugs them lol. I’m part Cuban but grew up in NorCal. Chicago sounds great!
My type of city.
💯
Gym shoes , yep! I say that all the time 😅
👟👟
We also say "the city." "I'm going to the city." We never say, I'm going to Chicago, it's always "the city."
Yea that’s true
I’m 25 applying for law school in Chicago kind of scared I won’t meet people , haha but this video motivates me
Good luck!
Its easy, dude, y’start with “Hi!”
.. I searched for this video for references in my book. Thank you.
Wow !! Great video ! You made us so curious, that this summer time we are going to visit Chicago! 🙏

The weather can be brutal in winter, but you tend to forget about it when weighed against all the positive things the city has to offer.
Thanks man. Gonna visit the city in July and will be taking your knowledge with me.
Great video! Super helpful
I love this channel!
Thanks so much for watching! 💯
I’m thinking about visiting my hometown for a week.
Sounds like a good plan!
Yes, and everyone here says they grew up in the suburbs. I'm here for Grad school too.
Okay I'm definitely moving to Chicago now!!
💯
Great job brotha. Super informative and helpful 🙏🏽✊🏽
I LOVE CHICAGO!!!

This gonna sound crazy. I used to live in NY then got moved to the south and I’ve wanted to live in a city again and I tried going to the military but didn’t like living like that but when I was in RTC I hated it but I do want to try checking the city out and consider moving because I need a change.
I grew up in south florida and going to UF in Gainesville right now. Got family from Chicago and visit every summer. Love your video spitting real facts. I plan on moving there for grad school for business. Any recommendations for programs and stuff?
Go Gators! I did the Software Engineering program at DePaul, but there are a ton of colleges and universities in this area so lots to choose from
Moving from florida to Chicago ❤
