Does illinois suck ?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
The grass isn't as green as it looks on the other side. I'm an hour outside of Chicago, my fiance and I move to Rhode Island about 4 years back. We lived there two and then moved back to IL.

Illinois isn't great, but there will be things you don't like no matter where you live.

+1. May not be the best of places...but it is home to me. I couldn't see myself anywhere else.
 
IL is the worst state in the country. Most violent, Toughest (And stupidest) gun laws, most corruption, Higest taxes, worst roads, Yeah it pretty much sucks.

Too bad we have a decent base for technical jobs otherwise I would have been gone years ago.
I hear that the state is much better ever since that guy moved to the white house 4 years ago. Some of the pollution is gone. LOL!
On a serious note, if the OP is young and single, the world is your oyster. Take a chance and relocate. The worse that can happen is you don't like the new place that you moved to, so you just move back to where you started from (just click your heels and say "There's no place like home").
 
I want to move to Texas lol
Yeah I agree Chicago needs to be it's own state, then Illinois will be the best state ever to live in
95% of Illinois problems is because of Chicago

I was born and raised in Illinois. I wanted out so bad. Joined the army and moved away for 12yrs. Now after living overseas and all across the country in can't wait to move back.
Every place has its drawbacks but it is home for me and the grass really is not always greener on the other side.

It is the age, also :)

20 is 20, all over the world :)
 
Seeing as how I'm from Wisconsin I will agree with you that Illinois sucks-mostly cause it's full of FIB's, but on the other hand I live in Iowa right now and that's horrible too.

You're in CR right? I would never live there. In all reality it sucks everywhere but in the Midwest a lot of things are cheaper here than they would be out east or west.
