I started off the day uncertain about my prospects for housing in chicago, and not having uploaded a single file (only fine tuning my little script). We now have maybe 50% of the files on the website, and I have a place to stay in chicago. $475/month plus 1/2 utils, furnished, swank little pad, very close to the kedzie brownline stop (near the end of the line, the brownline runs by my gymnastics location of choice and Whole Foods). Roommate sounds like a decent guy. Rockin’. Now to finish uploading webfoo, finish my paper, clean up the apartment and find a sublessor for my spot. No problem. =)
Chicago rents/home prices are so frickin reasonable it’s sickening, says the bitter DC resident.
Don’t get me started.
Hmmm, let’s see, most expensive part of the country outside manhattan? Check. =)
Where Democrats congregate, the rents are high. : (
Chicago is hardly republican. See also pittsburgh. 😉
This is a pretty sweet deal for chicago. In no small part because I’m not insisting on living in the ‘best’ neighborhoods. Just a short train ride away from them.
Congrats on finding a place to live…that sounds pretty good!
i wish nyc were so easy
