[quote=Anonymous]Can anyone speak to what COL looks like recently for Chicago? Esp. compared to Manhattan and DC (or Arlington)? I imagine it's in the same range but haven't lived in any Midwestern city before. FWIW -- I'd be working downtown and looking for a high rise apartment building in the city -- a one bedroom; nice amenities like a W/D, parking spot etc.; new-ish building like but coming from NYC to me that means anything constructed after 1989; nothing over the top (it doesn't need to be a brand new building with granite everything). Walkable neighborhood, close to work, safety -- would be the top criteria (so things like school districts etc. don't matter right now). What would be the rent for something like this in Chicago? I know I'm paying $2000 for this type of thing in Ballston right now. In Manhattan it would be well over $3000 -- and more like $400 given the sheer amount of space. [/quote]
