[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem with the Midwest is that it takes soooo long to get anywhere. Even from Chicago, what is there...Lake Michigan? So many more options within 2-4 hrs in your average east coast town. That’s why I’d always pick an east coast suburb...of course California is paradise too[/quote]

First Lake Michigan is awesome. I would take Lake Michigan over the Long Island Sound. And even though I am a native NYer, I actually prefer Chicago as a city. That said, it is true that when I lived in Chicago I felt that there were not as many different things within driving distance for a day or weekend trip than when I lived in the northeast. But in terms of the attributes of the town/suburb itself, the Chicago suburbs are tough to beat.

From birth to age 40 I lived in NY metro area - including Greenwich and New Canaan. Then I moved to the Chicago north shore. It is so much nicer than NY suburbs and the city is much nicer. COL is lower, schools are better, people are friendlier, city is great. But, the winters are too damn long. [/quote]
