My soul recoils in horror at the thought of having to live in a cold, dystopian place like that...good thing I live in Albuquerque where the sun shines and the people aren't sociopaths.
Hey Vaish! Crime in Chicago has gotten higher, but if you're looking at the US as a whole you'll find that it has risen dramatically across the board. I would check out 'Top 100 dangerous Cities in Us' on google to see Chicago's current rankings if you're interested.
I was born in Paris. Lived in NYC, and travelled pretty much all around the world. I have been living in Chicago for 4 years now, and I am about to leave it as soon as I can. Downtown is not safe, the CTA at night is dangerous, rent went higher and Chicago is definitely behind in a lot of ways compared to other big cities. It is not a world class city, unless you come from Michigan or Wisconsin. It’s a dump, do not move there.
@@AndySellsChicago do you have any kids? If you don’t then Chicago may be ideal for you right now. But trust me your mindset will change once you have kids Ijs
You guys kill me try to brag about how affordable it is to live there. But talk about how high the taxes are. Pretty much a counter intuitive oxymoron.
I left Chicago. Horrible place. It's worse now than ever before. It's not safe AT ALL. It's a miserable place. I'm glad I left. I have never been happier. And I was born there and lived there all of my life. I'm glad I left.

Great content Andy!
Thanks Stu! I appreciate the support
Is Chicago still safe in 2022? I hear the crime has gotten higher. How is it in downtown especially at night right now?

I'm sorry to hear all that Rene, would you agree that crime around the world has risen in the last 4 years as well?

@@reneverlaine7346 Chicago is a world class city and you’re a tool.
I use to love visiting Chicago in the 80's and early 90's. Now I want nothing to do with it.

Taxes are pricey - yes. I'm fine with it when you consider our infrastructure, great schools (area dependent) and erm corruption

Talking about crime.... Dude you live down town. 😂

Houston better than chicago
