Someone who is moving to Chicago should consider the cost of living in the city; the rent is higher than one would expect. Even small apartments are expensive. Our two bedroom apartment costs $3,000 per month. On top of the rent, one has to pay for parking. A parking spot can potentially cost as much as car payment!

If you are planning to move to Chicago, plan to dress warm in the fall and winter. Get comfortable with using public transportation, because driving in this city is a nightmare and parking is close to impossible. However, the museums, restaurants and music scene more than make up for the challenges in Chicago.

Someone moving to Chicago should consider a number of factors before settling on a neighborhood. First, they should think about how they will get around the city. Will they take public transportation? If so, they may want to live near a train line. If they prefer to drive, they might want to look for a condo or apartment with ample parking nearby.

Someone moving to Chicago should know deep dish pizza is the best kind of pizza. They should also know that the beach is the place on a hot summer day. a new Chicago resident should know parking a car on the street is competitive and hard, and it’s best to rent a private parking spot.
