technically, no.

but practically, yes.

i was born at a hospital in Evanston, grew up in neighboring Wilmette, and now live in Lincoln Square down in the city, ~7 miles due south of my childhood home in the burbs.



so if we're using "city" in the technical "City of Chicago" sense, then no.

but if we're using "city" in the more general "Chicagoland" sense, then yes.


And at this point, I don't imagine that I'll ever leave.
