A small town in the northern suburbs of Chicago, famously mentioned by Tow Waits in his song, "Johnsburg, Illinois". Several nicknames given to the town include, "J-burg, J-Town, and Johns Burgers." Rumor is that a sub-section exists inside the town with the name "nah-linz". Experts say that if a "nah-linz" did exist, it would occupy no more than a half acre of in-fertile land.
