Review of Illinois, Illinois
Just to set the record straight
-
9/28/2021
I just want to say being a resident in Illinois for over 50 years, if you are a fairly hard working person of average intelligence, Illinois is probably one of the best states in the Union. If you can understand living within your means, it is very easy to find work in most of the state and cost of living is very good if you are not compelled to keep up with the neighbors on everything. Never had issues getting used cars my entire life in good condition, never had an issue finding work my entire life.
