Yeah, Chicago is "familiar" if you're from Detroit, especially if you're an older millennial or above, that can remember the more densely built areas of Detroit before they went on a demolition spree 10-20 years ago.
This reminds me. I made the comparison between Detroit and Philly before, and I would also pair up Philly and Chicago.
