CYS ❤︎s CHICAGO!

6/8/2022

 
Picture
Chicago tends to get a bad rap - particularly when times are tough everywhere. Lately, when our city is mentioned in national publications (or by Texas governors), it's usually in reference to gun violence -  which is obviously an enormous problem - but it's an enormous problem in every major city, and well, EVERYWHERE in this country - not just in Chicago! Rarely do you find articles extolling the wonders of our fair city, home to a stunning lakefront and some of the finest restaurants, museums, architecture, music, and yes, theatre on the planet! Our friends at Redfin reached out to locals, including us, to share our favorite reasons why we love Chicago. Check out The Windy City Debunked - What Locals Love About Chicago to see what we (and others) had to say.  Enjoy!
