I realize this thread has been done a million times but can someone once again summarize the main difference between the cities? |

Date: October 14th, 2018 12:39 PM Author: Harsh plaza Chicago is much cheaper. You can actually afford a house in a good neighborhood in Chicago for $600-700k. In NYC it would be 2 mil. Chicago still has actual neighborhoods with families and people who did not come from money or buy their homes in the 80s.
Chicago more provincial culturally, but you can find international people to hang out with if that’s your thing.
The bad parts of Chicago are really bad. The good parts are great.
It’s flat as fuck around Chicago though Illinois has nice state parks within driving distance.
Chicagon is gentrifying rapidly and business relocating to the city, but long term there are serious questions about whether that will continue given the political leadership and taxes.
Ultimately Chicago is the capitol of the Midwest, New York is the capitol of the Western Hemisphere. |

People are better looking too. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4105560&forum_id=2#37045825) |

don't be poor & avoid the shitty parts of town in either city |

Date: October 17th, 2018 9:29 PM Author: Bat-shit-crazy theater stage wrong. the murder rate in the bronx is about 1.8 times Manhattan's, and still like 1/6 chicago's.
EDIT: poaster belong is full of shit. the bronx's murder rate is 4.9 per 100k. 72 murders, 1.455 million people: https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/nypd/downloads/pdf/crime_statistics/cs-en-us-pbbx.pdf

Date: October 17th, 2018 9:36 PM Author: maize swollen parlour elastic band bronx murder rate is about 7 per 100k people
chicago is 15 per 100k
take out the south side, which is one of the worst crime areas in the country but which you never need to venture to if you live in chicago, and the north side probably compares favorably with most cities and most of nyc |

Date: October 17th, 2018 9:38 PM Author: Electric tan death wish dysfunction If you can afford to live on the north side you might as well live in nyc where there's stuff to do (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4105560&forum_id=2#37046003) |
