the gold coast those who live there live in very shoddy housing and

ethnic group lives in its own little hood and neither like the
other. Some of the housing projects were bulldozed down when the
land became valuable, and the people living in them were displaced-
real caring govt. corruption is not the exception. Crime, yea, like
every other big city. Lots of rats .... lots of concrete, except for
the lake front green is the exception. I lived there and worked there
for about 9 months .... good job but I escaped that concrete jungles
as soon as I could. - like DC and Atlantic City, it puts on a good
face to the tourists, but don't look behind the scenes. The middle
class lives outside of Chicago. In the burbs. Chicago thinks its
the center of the universe. I'm certainly glad it is not.
