Wow, I seriously didn't know you could buy a house in Logan square or pilsen for under $300k!! That's a really good deal! I thought you had to live out by Ohare or Skokie to get a house that cheap! I always thought I couldn't afford a house in Chicago, but now I'll have to look, thanks!

As far as rents in Chicago I was looking at the rents in my hometown of Ft. Myers, FL which has absolutely nothing for young people in their 20-30's to do other than the beach and nice weather, and rents there are almost the same as Chicago lol. A downtown that is lame, and nothing like the ammenites and culture in Chicago. For what you get in Chicago it's super cheap, as long as you can put up with the winter.
