Sounds like an archetypal U of C undergrad to me. Also, Chicago weather is better than Boston's weather despite what some might have you think. [/quote]

False. And Boston is on the eastern seaboard, a train ride from NYC, Philly, DC. And easy plane access to Florida, Asian or Europe via Logan, JFK and LaGuardia. Chicago is in the middle of the country. It feels much more isolated during the grey cold months, especially to kids from the coasts.[/quote]

Are you aware of O'Hare International Airport, the world's sixth largest international airport? Or Midway, a hub for Southwest. Chicago is the opposite of isolated for anyone hoping to get anywhere via the sky. I'll give you trains, though.

And, speak for yourself re: weather/"feeling isolated."  I seem to recall a year where Boston sat under 6 feet of snow for a month. But, specific weather events aside, Boston has a very similar winter low average to Chicago and sees more snow. 
But, don't believe random DCUM poster, review the data yourself: https://www.bestplaces.net/climate/?c1=52507000&c2=51714000[/quote]
