Too near O'Hare
-
1/29/2011
The apartment I lived in there was great (if expensive), but the winter climate was frigid and so to use the necessary humidification for minimal health & comfort during the dry heating season caused mold. Keeping in mind some buildings are better insulated than others, of course!
Where I was, O'Hare was only about 2 miles away. The noise was horrendous.
On the good side, the people there (as in much of Chicago-land) are for the most part really good people. And of course it's never far away from culture.
Much ethnicity. Great, if a bit abbreviated, summers.
I cannot comment on the job situation there now as I've been away since the brunt of our current depression.
Bottom lime: There are far worse places to live, but choose your evils.
