Sell Me On Relocating To Chicago From KC
My wife has a really good job opportunity in Chicago and is trying to talk me into relocating there. I would stay in my current position and work virtually with occasional commutes back to KC. Her office would be downtown, just north of the Loop. So, we'd like to be somewhat near there with public transportation options.

A new city with better food, music, and entertainment options excites me. However, I'm mostly on the fence about it due to the winters there and the thought of working everyday from home in virtually 8 months of winter bums me out a little.

Any neighborhood suggestions from people who live/have lived there?
Pros/Cons from people who live/have lived there?
Is the weather that much different than KC?

I love KC, but I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't getting a little bored here.

The Winters are fine. It's probably closer to 5 months worth, but the Summer and Fall seasons are money. Seriously, you will never regret the experience. We plan to move back once both of our kids are in College.

I lived there for two years in my residency. Loved it. The wife didn't like the long winters, but I'm an avid outdoorsman, and I got into ice fishing, snowmobiling, etc. It's a great town. We lived about 45 minutes north near Evanston, and it was a short Metra train ride into down town.

- The only thing you got right was the snow turning black

I'd last maybe 2 months before attempting to get Bulls season tickets.
This is how I'd fix it.

I won't go full Mav and pick up a bunch of new teams, but I am a bit excited for the NHL and NBA.

We have those here too and with the extreme heat you have every right to walk around the house in your undies half the year and the wife can't say shit!

Man, she was offered LA first and we couldn't come to an agreement on the salary and relocation package to make it work for us. So they offered the LA package for their Chicago office. The LA housing market is 116% higher than KC.

I figured it would be more than that actually for LA housing. I also figure Chicago has higher housing than KC?
