Truly one of the greatest cities in the entire nation. With a total population exceeding 2.9 million inside the city limits alone, multiple cultures and ethnicities, cool-sounding urban, midwestern nasal accents (see ear candy), a rich
history, tons of museums, theaters, arcades, the Brookfield Zoo; the best
pizza outside of New York City, and probably one of the best city skylines in the United States, Chicago has something to offer to everyone. It is a higher standard of a metropolis that all other
American cities strive to be like(and many of them have succeeded in that: see Cincinnati, Philadelphia, Detroit, Atlanta, DC, Denver,
Omaha, and Seattle.
Chicago is the
ultimate economic, cultural, educational,
business, entertainment,
industrial, and population center of the Midwest.
