Chicago

[DreamGirlie]

My roomate and I are currently looking at apts in chitown. I have a friend who lives there and has given me some advice on areas...but hes only lived there since July so I thought some of youmay be able to help.

What are the best parts of the city for public transit...neither of us have a car.

What parts of the city are best for young, fun people...were 21/22 and go out a lot.

Advice? Ideas?

Thanks guys!

One piece of advice: Go see Jerry Springer and tell that fatass Oprah to go to hell. Actually that's two pieces of advice. What takes you to Chicago?

I hate boston, I cant afford to move back to California yet because their public transit sucks heh, and after trying to convince her for a year to move away from Mass...she just got laid off and said she would go. We both like Chicago (what we have seen/heard)

I have a friend that went to school in Chicago, Loyola University. she said that area of chicago was awesome, thats all she used to talk about. Apparently a very artsy area, near lake michigan I believe.

Re: Chicago

my buddy lives up on the northside by wrigley field. Its a nice neighborhood and theres lots of bars and stuff up there. As far as gettin around, I know one of the trains, redline perhaps, is right in the area. Theres all kinds of shops and lots of everything else up there too. And many people in their 20's live there too I believe. Nice area from what Ive gathered.

goodluck

I remember a few years ago visiting a friend in Boston and as we were heading downtown he looked at me from the passenger seat and said, "Two things: one, stay 3 inches from the car in front of you and two, don't look anyone in the eyes." No sooner than I slipped back about a foot from the car in front of me did some jackass merge right into what little space there was between me and the car in front of me. I then had to hear the "I told you so." Isn't the 'Big Dig' complete?

Majority of it is. The underground tunnels are done, they have a lot left to do regarding above ground. plus we have lots of other construction things going on....one of the train lines went underground and now they are dismantling it above gorund, what a mess.
