[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are indeed fleeing blue Illinois en masse to the tune of the most U.S. outmigration for the decade.[/quote] Isn't that just a broader trend? Pensioners in cold climate generally retire south, plus bulk of tech jobs are on the coasts. Chicago still has tons of high-rises being built downtown for UMC and rich yuppies. I think Chicago is still the go-to for college kids from the Midwest - Ohio to Iowa to Minnesota to Dakotas.[/quote] Don't make the mistake of focusing on one or two hot areas and extrapolating everything from it. Illinois is in a bad shape. Chicago metro region is losing people with plummeting housing values in the suburbs, including high end suburbs. A handful of urban neighborhoods becoming chic and popular and bucking the regional trend doesn't change the picture much. [/quote]
