Everyone knows Chicago is the 5th largest city in North America behind Mexico City, NYC, Los Angeles, and Toronto. Probably will maybe be 6th if Houston continues to grow. This thread is about what areas are cool or if Illinois suck(it does in ways) chime in also. You either dig Chicago as an outsider or not. Most love it though. This thread will focus more on the state and Metro area at large but those who live in the city are more than welcome to chime in.

As I said chime in show love or show hate just state what you think about Illinois. If you a resident of the state or a transplant what do you like and hate? If you visited the state what did you like and hate?
