Owning a second home in the burbs seems like the worst of both worlds.

Chicago is more the reverse. I have known a number of people who live in Hinsdale or Naperville or someplace and have a pied-a-terre apartment downtown to crash in if work goes late, to stay in after a play, or the Mrs. goes shopping with friends and wants to stay down. That kind of thing.

Not as much city people buying in the burbs, but yes to city people buying in Wisconsin and Michigan for summer places
