Not knocking your opinion, just wondering why you say that.

I spent a lot of years there. In comparison to the other top 10 market cities I've lived in, as well as some smaller cities you would think should be worse, the mentality of the people in Chicago overall is not where it should be.
Did you ever notice how heavily segmented it is by race.
Spend some time in other major cities and you will immediately feel the difference when you come back to Chicago.
