An overrated rat hole of a city in the Midwest U.S., with buildings as overbearing as the people, annoying traffic jams, mediocre food, and a "same shit different block" nightlife. Terrible schools. Over-glorified sports teams. BAD SMELLS around town. Lots of racial tension due to the urban rednecks who inhabit 80% of the city. Lot's of crime all around town. Corrupt politicians, still to this day. A decent looking city wasted on fat pompous asses and wannabe toughguys, like most of those knobs who wrote the previous definitions.
Chicago is the New York of the Midwest, and that's not a good thing !

I heart chi-town needs a life. New York crime-ridden? Let's do a little breakdown here, honey:

New York: 8 million people, 572 murders in 2004.
Chicago: 2.8 million people, 460 murders in 2004.

New York's murder rate: 6.9 per 100,000
Chicago's murder rate: 16.5 per 100,000

I've been to Chicago and there's no comparison to New York. Of course you think Chicago's safer, because you racists do a damn good job of hiding your poor and minorities. Outside of downtown, Chicago is indistinguishable from Detroit. There's an utter lack of quality culture compared to New York and the people are ignorant, arrogant, blue-collar Midwestern heifers. Half the people who I know from Chicago moved to New York and said it was the best thing they ever did. Only two of my friends from New York who moved to Chicago have deigned to say they like it.

So keep your segregation, your dirty lake, your even dirtier river, your autocratic mayor, your horrid public schools, your criminal police department, your high crime, and your damn Sears Tower. You are the second city and you always will be.

Wait, that's right. LA's the second city. That makes you THIRD.
If New York were shit-cago's (lack of capitalization intentional), size, it would have 193 murders a year.

If shit-cago were New York's size, it would have 1,400 murders a year.

The Sears Tower is the architectural equivalent of a stack of boxes with cockroach antennae. No one cares that it's tall.
That is, no one outside of Chicago cares that it's tall.

A city that is a waste of space. The people don't know how to drive, it smells like dog shit, and no one has an education in that city. If you are looking for a nice midwestern city, try ANYWHERE but shit-cago.
Hey, didn't you go to chicago this weekend?

Yea, it sucks, it smells like dog shit there.

Chicago people are "Country New Yorkers"
Chicago is a redneck version of NYC
Chicagoans are country New Yorkers

A city that is no-where near as unique as their smaller, but in comparison, cooler neighbor to the north Milwaukee. People are easily fooled by Chicago's big buildings but in reality only fools would live in "shy-town", its a want to be New York city in the dumpy mid-west. It has nothing that another overpopulated city couldn't offer except a view of an over-polluted lake instead of the ocean.
Milwaukee is way cooler than Chicago because of our cities drunken nature and love for festivals and good eating.
