Illinois (Chicago)
Why Illinois (Chicago)?
- Chicago, the most populous city of Illinois, offers picturesque skyline calls across the waters of Lake Michigan, lending an impactful first impression that soon reveals world-renowned museums, pulsating nightlife, five-star food, championship sports teams, and perhaps the finest downtown collection of architecture in the world.
- Thanks to two international airports featuring thousands of flight options, it’s also one of the most cost-competitive cities in the U.S.
- While Chicago is lovingly nicknamed “The Windy City”, that moniker has more to do with our politicians than the weather. It’s a moderate four-season lakefront destination.
